In astronomy, geography, geometry and related sciences and contexts, a direction passing by a given point is said to be vertical if it is locally aligned with the gradient of the gravity field, i.e., with the direction of the gravitational force (per unit mass) at that point. In general, something that is verticle can be drawn from up to down. Although the word vertical is very commonly used in daily life and language (see below), it is subject to many misconceptions.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! In astronomy, geography, geometry and related sciences and contexts, a direction passing by a given point is said to be vertical if it is locally aligned with the gradient of the gravity field, i.e., with the direction of the gravitational force (per unit mass) at that point. In general, something that is verticle can be drawn from up to down. Although the word vertical is very commonly used in daily life and language (see below), it is subject to many misconceptions. The precise definition above and the following discussion points will hopefully clarify these issues. The concept of a vertical line is thus anything but simple, although, in practice, most of these effects and variations are rather small: they are measurable and can be predicted with great accuracy, but they may not greatly affect our daily life.
