If the sun was the size of a soccer ball, how big would the earth be? And how far away? Gain an understanding of the enormous size of space by exploring a scale model of our Solar System on foot. Join amateur astronomer Steve Golson for a walk across the solar system. Meet on the Carlisle Public School plaza. We’ll walk from the plaza to Kimball’s for a small ice cream. The COAHS Van will be available for anyone who does not want to walk to Kimball’s. This planetary walk is for all ages.
