Summary  
 Before the scientifice revolution, people believed Geocentric theory that mean Earth is  in the center of the universe and all planet move around it.This theoory was proposed by a Greek Astronomy named Ptolemy.After scientific revolution , an astronomy named Copernicus came up with Heliocentric model that mean all planets include Earth are move aroound Sun.Other astronomer named Galileo conclued that the Heliocentric theory was correct and developed telescope. Each planets contain revolution that move around some planets. Heliocentric theory can be trust because if had be prove ny many evidenc from different astronomers.

Critical Question
Earth have day , night and season because it moves around sun(revolution).Also moon move around Earth effect the movement of ocean on earth.When moon move near the Earth , we wiil have high tide or low tide.


Reflection
I most enjoy when we taking the flim.The most challenging part for me is when i need to say the whole thing during film because I dont usually talk in film.I learn how to use imovie.I think i can do better on researching information.
