On this edition of FunScience, hosts Adrian Hopkins and Haleigh Hunt talk all things planets. How are planets and stars different? How big is the sun compared to other planets in the solar system? How far away is each planet from the sun? Why can we see the moon? And how do plants get their energy from the sun? To answer these questions, Jared Hottenstein completes a series of demonstrations to explore some fun facts about our solar system. Plus, Jared also explains why we have 12 months in a year.
Temple University’s College of Science and Technology (CST) and STEM Ed Network are proud to present FunScience Productions, the interactive program focused on providing free high-quality science lessons. Every episode brings a series of engaging demonstrations that enlighten students and teachers about the world around them in a fascinating way.
