We Live Where?! Miss Napolitano

Formation of the Solar System Nebula: birthplace of stars Star leaves nebula Star is rotating: gases and material surround it Gravity, rotation, condensing Planets may be formed Moons may be formed around planets

Our Place in the Universe

The Milky Way Galaxy

How BIG are We, REALLY?? Check out this video that shows our size relationship with the rest of the Universe.video

Rotation EVERYTHING IS ROTATING!!! –Sun rotates around center of Milky Way galaxy –Earth rotates around Sun –Moon rotates around Earth –Why does the Sun Shine?Why does the Sun Shine?

The Earth and the Moon ¼ the size the Earth 238,712 mi. from Earth hours to get there 4.6 billion years old Tilted 5° in its orbit Brain Pop The MoonBrain Pop

The Moon

The Near Side Rotates in 27.3 days. One Revolution in 27.3 days. Moon rotates and revolves at the same = we only see one side The NEAR side There is NO DARK SIDE There is a FAR side….

And the Backside! The FAR side

Characteristics of the Moon What do we see when we look at the Moon? Light, shiny places Dark, flat places Craters: Deep, bowl-like spots formed from meteor impacts Mountains: Bright areas Mare: Dark, flat areas, known as “Seas”

Our Moon Look at the NEAR side and the FAR side of the Moon. How are they SIMILAR? How are they DIFFERENT?

Phases of the Moon Check out this video on Moon Phaseson Moon Phases Brain Pop

Phases of the Moon How are the phases of the Moon formed? Let’s make our own! Make sure you follow directions carefully!

Moon Stats Moon’s orbit around Earth is inclined about 5 degrees to Earth’s plane of orbit around the Sun Ecliptic plane Sun Earth Moon Moon’s orbital plane Image created by LPI staff

Comets

What are they? What are they made of? Why are they important? Check it out!
