Join us for an engaging exploration of how our understanding of Earth's scale has evolved, and the visionary scholars who made these discoveries possible. This presentation will take you on a journey from the groundbreaking work of Eratosthenes in 200 BC, who first calculated the Earth's circumference, through Johannes Kepler's transformative discoveries in 1618 AD, which unraveled the secrets of planetary motion, and culminating with Edwin Hubble's revolutionary observations in 1929 AD that expanded our view of the universe. Delve into the contributions of these pivotal figures and understand how their discoveries have profoundly influenced our comprehension of both our planet and the cosmos.Please use the link below to register.
