  • One rotation takes about 24 hours.
  • The Sun appears to move from east to west because Earth rotates west to east.
  • The Pole Star appears nearly stationary in the Northern Hemisphere.
  • The Big Dipper appears to move around the Pole Star.
  • Revolution is motion around another object.
  • The path of revolution is called the orbit.
  • Earth takes about 365 days and 6 hours to complete one revolution.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
