Difference between Lunar node and Lunar precession

Lunar node vs. Lunar precession

The lunar nodes are the orbital nodes of the Moon, that is, the two points at which the orbit of the Moon crosses the ecliptic. Precession is the change in orientation of a rotational axis with respect to a reference plane.

Similarities between Lunar node and Lunar precession

Lunar node and Lunar precession have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Ecliptic, March equinox, Moon, Nodal precession, Orbit of the Moon, Orbital node.

Ecliptic

The ecliptic is the circular path on the celestial sphere that the Sun follows over the course of a year; it is the basis of the ecliptic coordinate system.

March equinox

The March equinox or Northward equinox is the equinox on the Earth when the subsolar point appears to leave the southern hemisphere and cross the celestial equator, heading northward as seen from Earth.

Moon

The Moon is an astronomical body that orbits planet Earth and is Earth's only permanent natural satellite.

Nodal precession

Nodal precession is the precession of the orbital plane of a satellite around the rotation axis of an astronomical body such as Earth.

Orbit of the Moon

The Moon orbits Earth in the prograde direction and completes one revolution relative to the stars in about 27.322 days (a sidereal month) and one revolution relative to the Sun in about 29.530 days (a synodic month).

Lunar node and Lunar precession Comparison

Lunar node has 42 relations, while Lunar precession has 22. As they have in common 6, the Jaccard index is 9.38% = 6 / (42 + 22).
