mid · spatial

the part of a space that is equally distant from the boundaries

Mid (noun) means: the part of a space that is equally distant from the boundaries. It emerges from center, boundary, part, space: the center of a space together with its boundaries determines the region that lies equally between them. In the EmergenceLexicon it sits at computed level 4, chaining down to the four foundations (space, time, energy, pattern).

Examples

• The International Space Station orbits Earth at an altitude where gravitational pull from both bodies balances exactly at its center of mass. physics
• The Forbidden City in Beijing was constructed with its main halls aligned precisely at the midpoint between the northern and southern walls. architecture
• The GPS satellite network calculates position fixes by measuring signal travel time to the midpoint between orbital extremes. computing
