The 17 pages that link to Sidereal time, each with the reason it gives.

• Right ascensionRelated: Local sidereal time converts an object's right ascension into its hour angle.

• SecondCompared with: It tracks rotation rather than the cesium frequency defining the second.

• Coordinated Universal TimeCompared with: It is an astronomy-focused rotational measure, unlike UTC’s atomic basis.

• Equatorial coordinate systemRelated: Local sidereal time connects right ascension to an object’s hour angle.

• Greenwich Mean TimeCompared with: It uses a different celestial reference from GMT’s mean solar basis.

• HourCompared with: A sidereal day is about four minutes shorter than a solar day, so its hours track a different cycle.

• Solar timeCompared with: A sidereal day is shorter than a solar day because Earth advances along its orbit.

• Hour angleRelated: Local sidereal time minus right ascension gives hour angle.

• CruxRelated: Crux's changing orientation through the night can serve as a rough seasonal clock.

• Sidereal yearRelated: Its daily cycle uses the same stellar reference that defines the sidereal year.

• Sidereal monthRelated: The same star-referenced convention gives the sidereal month and sidereal day their common lineage.

• Telescope mountRelated: Equatorial tracking follows the sky’s apparent motion at the sidereal rate.

• DayCompared with: It measures a rotation against the stars rather than the Sun.

• Naked-eye astronomyRelated: It predicts when familiar star patterns will appear at particular positions.

• Polar alignmentRelated: Equatorial mounts track at the sky’s sidereal rate once their rotational axis is aligned.

• Karl Guthe JanskyRelated: The signal repeated on a sidereal schedule, pointing to a celestial source.

• Night skyRelated: It predicts which stars cross the night sky at a given moment.
