1. Bad Moon Rising: The Moon does spin.
-What did you think before, I thought that the moon never truly spun by itself, i always thought it was stuck in one spot rotating with the earth around the sun.
-What did you learn, I learned that the Moon actually does spin. It spins around the earth due to earths gravity. The reason we see the same side of the moon every night is because that is when the moon is fully visable to the naked eye.

All starts look white.
-What did you think before, Yes all starts look white because most are so bright and to the naked eye that is the only color we see.
-What did you learn, I learned that starts actaully emit all the colors of the rainbow, so therefore to the naked eye white is the only color we see.
3. A Step Farther Out:
Tides, the Earth, the Moon, and why our days are getting longer
-What did you think before, The tides are caused due to the Moon's actiavite which causes the water to shift back and forth in weird ways. The Earth is a clloster of things from different starts which exploded at one time. The Moon is an object of ice, rock, and other metarials grouped togther from exploded stars, the moon orbits the earth because of the earths gravity and mass. The Days get longer because of the shift of the earth facing the sun and the seasons of the earth, summer we get more sun because we are tilted more towards the sun, winter we are pointed more aways.
