Virtual : Geauga Skywatchers- Geocentrism - Springboard to Copernicus - Part 2 Online
We continue our exploration of the ancient roots of astronomical understanding. Having previously learned about the 3 apparent motions of the sun & discovered the size and shape of the earth, we now discover the equinoxes & solstices, the solar anomaly & length of seasons, and precession of the equinoxes. Geocentrism, while wrong, still has the power to teach valid concepts of modern astronomy!
Geauga Skywatchers Club is an astronomy club founded by a collaboration of organizations interested in promoting scientific thinking to the young and young-at-heart through the study and practice of astronomy.
Collaborators are Chagrin Valley Astronomical Society, Geauga County Library System, Burton Public Library and Geauga Park District. and The Foundation for Geauga Parks
