The earth's sphericity is demon- strated, while rotation is established by star trails and the Poucault pendulum. Proof of the earth's revolution about the sun is pre- sented by motion of the sun in respect to stars and by the annual parallax of stars. The film concludes with phenomena associated with this revolution "Highly technical."
