Changing Perspectives n People normally see the world from the perspective of standing on the surface of the earth n To understand latitude and longitude, you are required to change your perspective or frame of reference

Changing Perspectives Cont’d n You must now see the earth from a position in space looking down at the world, just like an astronaut! n The same applies to the sun, which is a sphere just like earth. n This can be challenging, but it can be done!
