Is there any place on Earth where we can see stars rise in the west and set in the east (rather than rising in the east and setting in the west)? Why or why not?
   
A. Yes, in the Southern Hemisphere, because the sky appears backward there
      
B. Yes, on Earth's equator, because it is halfway between the poles
      
C. No, because the rising and setting of stars is caused by Earth's west to east rotation
      
D. No, because the stars that rise in the west and set in the east are too dim to be seen by the naked eye
