	45th parallel north - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The 45th parallel of north latitude is the east-west line that marks the halfway point between the equator and the North Pole.
		In North America, it roughly marks the border between the United States and Canada between the St.
		The actual boundary of Vermont lies approximately 1 km north of the parallel due to a cartographic error.

		This is the midpoint between the Equator and the North Pole.

		The result of the Convention of 1818, as it concerns North Dakota, was that it added the area drained by the Red River of the North, south of the 49th parallel of latitude.
		From the Red River of the North to a point on the boundary two miles west of the 99th Meridian (northwest of Sarles, Cavalier County, North Dakota), the boundary was originally marked with cast-iron posts five feet high, set one mile apart along the line.
		The boundary between North Dakota and Minnesota, the thread of the channels of the Red River of the North and the Bois de Sioux River, is approximately 434 miles long.

		Parallels of latitude bow equator-ward relative to grid lines, so the 5000-km grid line is south of the halfway latitude on the edges of the grid zone and north of it in the center.
		parallel of latitude, meaning it is exactly halfway between the north pole and the equator, and is a quarter of the way around the earth from Greenwich, England.

		Keizer is unique in that it not only has the distinction of its location on the 45th Parallel, but it is one of the few cities that are home to both a line of latitude and line of longitude.
		The actual path of the 45th Parallel through Keizer is through the south end of the Keizer Little League fields and through the Wittenberg Inn and the south end of McNary High School along Sandy Drive, said Kelly Walther, project manager for W.I. Peterson Engineering, which plotted the line for the Points of Interest Committee.

		In the 1930's, the marker was erected to indicate one place in Nova Scotia that is midway between the North Pole and the Equator.
		That marker is north of the 45th parallel and some people felt that it was at the wrong place.

		But as we rode along the parallel, we concluded that cartography, that curious blend of art and science, might just as well be the result of wishful thinking.
		Situated on Passamaquoddy Bay in the south eastern section of Washington County, the 45th parallel of north latitude passes right through the town.
		The plan was simple: we'd find out where the 45th ambled into the bay, walk back in a straight line, and knock on the door of the first house we encountered; the folks inside would be the easternmost in America living on the 45th.

	History of Ryegate - Chapter II
		But in 1759, Quebec was taken, and North America passed into English hands, the Indians were no longer to be feared, and the "New Hampshire Grants," as the country between Lake Champlain and the Connecticut was called, were open for settlement.
		The fertility of the soil was well known, the land was cheap, and from all parts of the long settled towns along the coast men and families prepared to remove to the new lands.
		In the spring of 1762, families began to settle in both towns along the meadows, and on the 18th of May, 1763, Newbury and Haverhill were chartered to Jacob Bayley, John Hazen, and their associates, many of whom became actual settlers in one town or the other.

	DCP: 49 degrees north, 98 degrees west (visit #1)
		As the 45th parallel north passes within a few feet of the end of my driveway, the journey’s destination was to be exactly four degrees north of its starting point.
		Although it is the closest road running parallel to the 49th parallel, it is 55 seconds from the destination and I had a large, bazooka-size tripod to carry once I started walking so I backtracked to drive south on a farm road.
		Based on the till pattern of the fields and the northern extent of the windbreaks, it appears that at some time the 49th parallel was surveyed to be several, perhaps 30, yards north of where my GPS and the satellite photos show it to be.

	North Dakota Found to Harboring Nuclear Missiles
		According to Blix, North Dakota is home to 500 Minuteman III ICBMs and 50 Peacekeeper missiles, giving it one of the heaviest concentrations of the weapons on earth.

		"North Dakotans live a horrible life of isolation and deprivation, struggling to grow crops in a hostile, sub-zero climate while their indifferent government routinely prioritizes bolstering the state's military might," BBC World correspondent Caroline Eagan said.

		The North Pole is tilted toward the sun relative to the plane of the ecliptic.
		Because about most of the northern hemisphere's 45th parallel (45o North Latitude) is in daylight on Summer Solstice, daylight lasts for about 15 hours of the day and darkness lasts for a relatively shorter nighttime period (about 9 hours).
		Because the North Pole is tilted toward the Sun on the June Solstice (as is seen in the diagram above, left side), the Circle of Illumination is casting shadow on a smaller slice of the northern hemisphere than it is on the southern hemisphere.

		We should note that today we can locate the 45th Parallel to within 20 millimeters, the reality is that a band about two meters wide should be searched, and yes it is possible that we might be within 12 inches of the original mark.
		It would also be a good idea to establish the 45th Parallel crossing on US1 and do a search at that location, just in case that is the location of the original mark.

		Standard cylindrical (Mercator) projection has the drawback that the polar regions are "stretched" more as latitude increases, while it has the benefit that latitude lines are horizontal and longitudinal lines are vertical.
		EarthView can take advantage of this benefit from the equator to the 45th parallel (north and south), but from there to the poles converts the data into separate regions with the pole in the center.
		This is also somewhat distorted, but when these regions are mapped to a globe in computer graphics, the result is a high-quality simulation that avoids mapping problems and saves diskspace by reducing the "polar stretch".
