Sun Shadow Investigation Project
Take part in a global project during the September Equinox by joining with
students at Colegio Menor San Francisco de Quito (Ecuador) and students and educators from around the globe in SunShIP, the Sun Shadow Investigation Project. Participants will measure the altitude of the mid-day Sun and use this information to calculate the polar circumference of the Earth. Additionally participants are encouraged to take pictures of student involvement or of mid-day shadows from various latitudes for comparison. Participating individuals or classrooms that send in data will receive an official certificate from the Eratosthenes Society. Visit the project web site at http://sunship.currentsky.com for more information, activities for all grade levels, and to add your name or classroom to the participant guest map.
