This lesson
looks at the world
around us and will
open our eyes to
the huge diversity
found on this tiny
planet we call home
hopefully giving
us a better
understanding of
our place in the
world and a deeper
appreciation for
the life we
live here.
So to begin with, let’s go on a
journey…
3.7billion miles away
On Valentine’s Day, 1990, NASA commanded Voyager 1 to
turn around and take one last photograph of our Solar System.
From 3.7 billion miles away, this is what it saw…
This famous photo is known as
‘The Pale Blue Dot’.
It is actually a picture of earth.
CAN YOU SEE IT?
This famous photo is known as
‘The Pale Blue Dot’.
It is actually a picture of earth.
WHAT ABOUT NOW?
One famous astronomer called it
‘a mote of dust
suspended in a sunbeam’
We live in the United Kingdom,
which is a ‘dot’ on the dot. With
a population of 64million
we are the 27th
biggest
country in the world, between
Thailand and Italy!
In terms of the actual size of
Northern Ireland we find ourselves
80th
in the world somewhere
between Guinea
and Uganda!
So let’s open our eyes
to our world…
