Day 5 : Adler Planeterium

   The Adler Planetarium was founded in 1930 by Chicago business leader, Max Adler. Today we looked at our planet and we saw different planets and how the rocks from some planets felt like.We also learnt that Pluto is a planet , that it is just the furthest from the sun and also it has a bigger density than Mecury.


  Next, we went to see our planet at night , different galaxies and our everyday constellations that we don't see e.g Gemini(the twins) & O'rein and his two dogs.





















 The instructor was quite descriptive about how fast light moves faster than sound, and we have a gigantic amount of galaxies.
   Lastly, the tour guide explained that at night we saw normal stars,but when we put our heads together we get different pictures of signs, which were stories that explained the Greek Mythology.
