The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' of [[Micras]] is the parallel halfway between the North and South Poles. The length of the equator is 43,200 km (3,600 pixels). The equator is measured from the [[Prime Meridian]] at ±0°E, with positive degrees (E) east and negative degrees (W) west. Those longitudinal lines meet again at the opposite side of the world, the Anti-Meridian, at ±180°W.

Equator on Micras
The underwater monument 'Middle Micras', placed at the junction of the Prime Meridian and the Equator.

The Equator of Micras is the parallel halfway between the North and South Poles. The length of the equator is 43,200 km (3,600 pixels). The equator is measured from the Prime Meridian at ±0°E, with positive degrees (E) east and negative degrees (W) west. Those longitudinal lines meet again at the opposite side of the world, the Anti-Meridian, at ±180°W.
