We compare and contrast Earth’s rotation, which makes day and night, and revolution, which makes our year. Using the Planetarium’s Digistar visualization system, we travel into space to get an intuitive understanding of Earth’s rotation on its axis and revolution around our Sun. As time allows, we take a brief tour of stars and planets visible in our current sky. Content can be adapted to the needs of your class; teachers should email Planetarium Director Steve Fentress at sfentress@rmsc.org for more information.
