Teaching astronomy and space: Models of the Solar System; Earth, Sun and Moon
About | Information | History | Online | Facts | Discovery
Dr Simon Foster presents an introduction to the solar system, specifically the Earth, Sun and Moon. Filmed on location in La Palma, the programme describes how mankinds understanding of the universe changed over time. Starting with the ancient greeks understanding of the solar sytem, we investigate how the observational evidence changed our models of the universe right up to our present day understanding.

I'm a man of God who has dedicated his life to spirituality, and know so little about any sciences. I was thrilled to watch this video, because it really gives you the whole picture...our senses do tell us that it's the sun and moon that move around the earth, so it was wonderful for me to have it illustrated what the ancient Greeks struggled with, and how we came to accept the truth of our mysterious journey! Thanks for putting up this video! God bless!
