About Arcsecond (″)

One sixtieth of an arcminute (1/3600 of a degree), the arcsecond provides the precision needed in astrometry for measuring stellar positions and parallax. The Hubble Space Telescope achieves resolution of about 0.05 arcseconds, and GPS coordinates at the arcsecond level pinpoint locations to within about 31 meters.

About Degree (°)

One 360th of a full rotation, the degree has been used since ancient Babylonian astronomy, likely chosen because 360 approximates the number of days in a year and has many convenient divisors. Navigation, surveying, architecture, and everyday angle descriptions all use degrees as their primary unit.
