But where to you define your zero-radius line?	by subbywan	2003-12-19 13:01:02
There is a spherical system. Basically there are 2 sets of co-ordintes you could use: 1) The co-ordinates in relation to the GNP, located at the center of the galaxy. 2) The co-ordinates in relation to a particular body in space, be it a planet or a spaceship. Either one would use 2 circles, with one being horizontal and the other vertical. with that, you could create a direction in any 3 dimensional space. The whole problem is what defines the reference points.
