Planetarium

We had our first visit of the year to the planetarium today. I thought we had taken the wrong class upstairs at one point because they were so quiet.

We had many questions for Mr Gregory.

• Why do the stars move?
• How does the moon give us light?
• How does the sun give us light?
• What are stars?

Mr Gregory showed us many amazing pictures of the sky. We learnt that the sun is a ball of fire and that all stars are suns and that all suns are stars.

Did you know that the moon doesn’t give us light, it is the sun shining on the moon. We also learnt that there are no aliens on the moon because we have already explored it!
