It was in Greece that the
Golden Age of early
astronomy was centered.

The Greeks are very much noted for their major


contributions in different fields.

They were not only great philosophers. They


were great scientists and mathematicians as well.
How do you see the shape of the Earth?

Let’s try to understand this by performing this song.


The Shape of the Earth is Round
In the tune of “The Wheels on the bus go round and round”
By: X-handi B. Fallarna

The shape of the Earth is round, just round


Round, just round
Round, just round
The shape of the Earth is round, just round
All this time
The Greek philosophers had thought it’s flat,
Some thought it’s round, some thought it’s round
The Greek philosophers had thought it’s flat,
But they got it wrong!
North Star, eclipse, and sailing ship,
Moon’s shadow from Earth’s relationship
These conclude that the Earth is round
All this time!
