Hello:

The last full moon I was taking a walk and was marveling that when the
moon is near it's northern extreme, it is quite high when it crosses 90
degrees azimuth.

A question occurred to me:
Is there an east/west equivalent to the meridian? In other words, what
is the term for the great circle that goes through azimuth 90 and 180
degrees and through the zenith?

Also, is there a term for when an object crosses that line?

Thanks!
Greg
