1. Wednesday 5/10/17
Notebook Entry: Re-read your notebook entry from yesterday. Now that you have read more (your homework) about the objects in our solar system, do you still think the same about the what the large object and small speck are in this picture? If you think something different what is your new idea?

2. Distances in the Solar System
Astronomical Unit (AU)
The average distance between the sun and the Earth.
Approximately 150,000,000 kilometers
0.62 miles in 1 km
Distances in our system are measured in astronomical units.

4. Space Walk
Purpose of Walk: Model to Scale of the Distances in Space Give a better perspective on how far away objects are from each other in our solar system

5. Space Walk Flags
Your group will create a Planet Flag for us to place on our walk as visual for where that planet would be located.
You will share the data you collect with us when we make the stop for your planet.
Use the Data sheet posted on my webpage and your textbook to complete your planet flag.
Glue is to a skewer stick to make it like a flag with a pole
If you have extra time your group can design a flag for your planet and draw and color that flag design on the back of the flag.
