Starlab Day 4 Seasons
Here is a review of Seasons in the Starlab. Take it as many times as you like.
Actually, did you know that it takes approximately 8 1/3 minutes for light from the sun to travel to the earth? That's 150 million kilometers!!!
ALSO...did you know? Because an Astronomical year takes 365.25 days for earth to travel around the sun, we add a leap (extra) day every 4 years (1/4 day X 4 years = 1 day total extra) to the Gregorian calendar, which has only 365 days in a year. If we didn't add a leap day on February 29 every four years, we would lose almost six hours off our calendar every year. After only 100 years, our calendar would be off the Astronomical Calendar by around 24 days!
