Answer:

The Prime Meridian or Greenwich meridian refers to the 0° line of longitude that separates the Earth into the eastern and western hemispheres. This is the line of reference from which 180° to the east and west are measured.

For the first time, Sir George Airy established it in the year 1851 and referred the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, England as the 0°degree line of longitude.
