Zenith 天顶

(重定向自Zenith Angle)
Diagram showing the relationship between the zenith, the nadir, and different types of horizon. Note that the zenith is opposite the nadir.
Shadows of trees when the sun is directly overhead (at the zenith). This happens at the solar noon if the tree's latitude equals the sun's declination at that moment.
Beziehung zwischen Zenit, Nadir und Horizont
Gerade gewachsene Bäume weisen zum Zenit am Himmel.

Zenith (UK /ˈzɛnɪθ/, US /ˈznɪθ/) refers to an imaginary point directly "above" a particular location, on the imaginary celestial sphere. "Above" means in the vertical direction opposite to the apparent gravitational force at that location. The opposite direction, i.e. the direction in which gravity pulls, is toward the nadir. The zenith is the "highest" point on the celestial sphere (meaning it is the farthest up from the gravitational force). Zenith is sometimes used as a given name, most commonly for males. Its meaning, "highest point," evokes success and power.
