Ever wonder why we have seasons on earth? We will use this interactive tool (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. to investigate how the tilt of the earth affects things like temperature, day length, and the path the sun takes through the sky.

Read the "Introduction" and "How To" tabs on the seasons interactive page.
On the "Interactive" tab, watch a full orbit of the planet with the inclination set to the same as Earth. Record the maximum and minimum temperature (as given by the thermometer on the interactive - cold, cold 1/2, cool, mild, etc.) for Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall. Repeat this for inclination set to the same as Venus and then Uranus.
Now pick an inclination other than 23, 2, or 86 degrees and repeat the process a fourth time.
Turn in your observations of the relative temperatures for all four seasons for these 4 inclinations in a Word document (or similar) as part of your Lab 3 Report. You should include a data table summarizing the results of your 4 virtual experiments for the four seasons.
You will discuss your analysis of these observations in Discussion Board 3 (below)
