No Way!!



While it is commonly said that the 45th Parallel is halfway between the equator and the North pole, this is not precisely true. Since the earth is not a perfect sphere but bulges near the equator, a 45° angle drawn from the center of the earth does not quite match the halfway point of a line drawn along its surface. Instead, the halfway point lies approximately 10 miles north of the 45th Parallel. The 45th Parallel runs through Michigan.
