More About Rotation IV

3. Here We Are, 'Round the Sun...

This brings together all three of the previous mini-lessons about rotation of the Earth. You see the Earth rotating on its axis, and also going around the sun. The solstices and equinoxes will briefly flash on the screen for each time of year.

NOTE: This is not to scale; in reality, the sun is a lot bigger to scale, and Earth is a lot further away.

Next Lesson, Please! Seasons, Temperatures, and the Sun.
Wait a sec! Can I see that previous mini-lesson again?
