In order to describe geometrical facts in geodesy, geodynamics, or astronomy, one must have suitable reference frames. This paper deals with some basic concepts for the definition of both terrestrial and celestial systems which make it possible to describe position and motion of mass elements of the earth or stars, respectively. It is suggested to use such frames with respect to which coordinate changes of points on the earth’s surface or of stars, respectively, become minimal. The rotation vector should be defined by applying the rotation operator on the velocity field.
