The earth 'ORBITS' around the sun and rotates on its axis. Suggest a google search on which ever your interested in.

Use the wikipedia. Type in a planet's name and wiki into a search engine (eg: mercury wiki) and it should give you all the information you need.

Wandering throughout the swamp, he encountered two escaped criminals, killed them, and took their clothes. When they asked him his name, he simply muttered that he had been born on Monday. Reminded of an old nursery rhyme about a man born on Monday, the thugs named the creature "Solomon Grundy".

It was very hard for man to accept that the earth is revolving around the sun. If we stay away from astronomy for a while, it is still an amazing piece of knowledge.

It is very hard for man to accept what he is too.
