What direction is a planet when it is highest in the sky? - direction
A question of responsibility, I do not see any help would be great. During the night, stands a planet above the horizon across the sky and put it under a
Horizon. In what direction should consider the observation of the planet, if it is higher in
Heaven? This would be an observer in the eyes of the southern hemisphere in the same direction?

If the planet is on the meridian. The meridian is an imaginary line between the head through the north (Zenit) in the south. The Sun transits the meridian at noon standard time.
If you are in the northern hemisphere would be facing south. If you are in the southern hemisphere would be due north.

Do not get too technical here, but I always tell my nephew, who is "out there".
The correct answer to your question depends on the time of year when the planet on its orbit relative to Earth, the position of the observer on Earth, and if the planet is north or south of the ecliptic at the time. Planets do not travel more than 7 degrees north or south of the ecliptic.
As a harsh response if the viewer is more than 7 degrees north of the Tropic of Cancer (north than about 31 degrees) north latitude, appear the planets in the sky of the south, where higher, irrespective of other factors, like the moon. If there is, observers of more than 7 degrees south (the Tropic of Capricorn to the south) at about 31 degrees south latitude, the planets appear in the northern sky, where higher, regardless of other factors, such as the moon.
For observers between 31 Degrees north latitude and 31 degrees south latitude, the answer is more complicated. If you give me a specific date and the planet, I present the analysis that determines where it is displayed.
Malcolm then simplified and Productswrong answer. For example, an observer from the sun in the sky north of Ecuador at noon from the March equinox and September equinox, and in the southern sky at noon from the September equinox to equinox Mars. Likewise, the moon and the planets in the sky over north and south can be seen by an observer in Ecuador, according to other factors. An observer of 1 degree north, technically in the Northern Hemisphere is more or less the same as observed in Ecuador, show poor response times of Malcolm.
Depends most of the planets eccleptic on the way, which is about the level of the solar system. So if you are in the northern hemisphere to the south and vice versa in the southern hemisphere, provided they are visible when you try to observe. If you are in the axis, which is recorded live eccleptic in the world, you are directly over its peak.
