Day 16 - A Global Education

Today, Professor Marco was a guest lecturer for our class. He talked about harvesting solar energy, and particularly the astronomy behind catching the sun’s rays. It’s fascinating to think about where the sun is in the sky and why, particularly along the Equator. No matter what time of year, the days here are always twelve hours. And the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn aren’t just trivial. Try revolving a globe around a light bulb, if you’re curious.
