Homeschool Program: 3rd Rock from the Sun
Earth from the Core to Climate Change
Monday, November 9
10:30 – 11:45am
Today’s Homeschool Program will focus on Earth, the 3rd rock from the Sun. Our home planet is a story told in layers of science from the core at its center, through all the layers inside the planet, to the atmosphere and what happens in the layers above the surface of the Earth.
Join Dr. Dan Polsgrove, Astronomer, Planetarium educator and former Astronomy professor here at the Academy, for a detailed discussion about our home planet.
In addition to the Live portion of the show, the inner planets portion of two of our films, Worlds Beyond Earth and Oasis in Space will be included. These clips will give us additional information and beautiful visuals of the inner planets of our solar system.
