Since people first noticed the movement of the stars and the changing seasons, they have looked for explanations for those events. In the modern era, these events were researched to the point that these events were no strange at all for people. We will now read about these events, from Earth´s Revolution to Earth´s different stages, from Solstices throughEquinox. These events form the planet balance and now you will know about the Earth and the events that affect it.

Through this work, you will learn specifically about the Earth´s different stages, researching trough the crust and the inner core. You will also learn about satellites, celestial bodies that orbits a planet or smaller bodies; you will also know about constellations, a term usedto refer to a perceived pattern formed by prominent stars within apparent proximity to one another. So please, enjoy this journey through knowledge of Earth itself!















Objectives
* Learn about the events that affect our planet.
* Have a better understanding about the space and the things that are on it like satellites andconstellations.
* Know about the Earth´s layers and how they affect us.
* Acquire the basic knowledge about the universe.
