SPACE EARTH MOVEMENTS
Earth’s Rotation • Rotation is the spinning of the Earth on its axis. • The time for one rotation is 24 hours. • (t is for Top, to spin) • Hokey Pokey Click image to view Earth’s rotation.
Earth’s Revolution • A revolution occurs as the earth moves around the sun. • Time for one revolution = 365 1/4 days = 8,766 hours • The speed of earth’s revolution is about 18 miles per second. • (o is for orbit) Touchdown
Around and Around We Go • Every second, that you sit in this classroom, the Earth's orbital motion carries you about 18 miles through space.
