The document discusses several key facts about Earth's rotation:
- Earth spins on an imaginary axis, completing one rotation every 24 hours at a speed of over 1,000 mph.
- Earth's rotation causes day and night and influences the number and placement of time zones around the world.
- Earth bulges slightly at the equator due to the centrifugal force of its rotation.
- Earth's tilted axis and yearly orbit around the sun influence the seasons and amount of sunlight different areas receive through the year.

Our Solar System are composed of 1 star (Sun), 8 major planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune), 5 dwarf planets (Ceres, Pluto, Haumea, Makemake, Eris), 566,000 asteroids and 3,100 comets. The age of our Solar System is about 4.6 billion years.

A "lunar eclipse" and a "solar eclipse" refer to events involving three celestial bodies: the Sun ("solar"), the moon ("lunar"), and the Earth. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth passes between the Moon and the Sun, and the Earth's shadow obscures the moon or a portion of it. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, blocking all or a portion of the Sun.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. Do you know?
• What causes day & night?
• What percent of the earth is always lit by the sun?
• Which direction the Earth spins?
• How many time zones are in the world?
• How fast the Earth spins?
• What is the true shape of the Earth?
• Why it’s colder at the North and South poles?
4. Earth’s Rotation
If you were to
look down at the
North Pole, you
would see that the
Earth spins
counter-
clockwise. Click image to view Earth’s rotation.
5. The direction of Earth’s rotation is why
Florida is 2 hours ahead of Arizona.
11. Watch a demonstration of a
sphere bulging out due to
spinning.
• https://youtu.be/FRgCF3WStfU
12. • Because of Earth’s round shape, sunlight hits the earth
at angles.
13. • The places that get the
most direct sunlight are
the warmest. These
places are between the
Tropic of Capricorn
and the Tropic of
Cancer.
14. • The places that get the most direct sunlight are the
warmest. These places are between the Tropic of
Capricorn and the Tropic of Cancer.
15. Because the Earth is tilted, there are times of the
year when Antarctica and the North Pole have
sunlight all day and night long in the summer, and
no sunlight at all in the winter.
18. Lahaina Noon is when Hawaii is getting direct
sunlight. In other words, the sun is directly
overhead during Lahaina Noon.
19. • On any given date, there is just 1 place on the planet
where sun rays hit Earth straight on (90o angle). All other
places are getting sunlight at an angle.
20. It is called the “sub
solar point”. The sun is
directly overhead for a
brief amount of time.
What do you notice?
26. Only places that
are between the
Tropic of Cancer
and the Tropic of
Capricorn can be
a subsolar point.
It depends on the
time of the year.
27. Hawaii is a subsolar
point one day in May
and one day in July
every year. Hawaiians
call this “Lahaina
noon”. Notice that at
Lahaina noon, the statue
casts a shadow that is a
perfect circle.
