Most people know about the seasons, our moon’s phases, gravitation, the centrifugal force and the Bernoulli effect. But too many give wrong explanations because they were misinformed by peers, family, friends and the occasional teacher, or simply because the wrong explanation of Earth being closer to the Sun in the summer makes sense. In physics and astronomy we need to emphasize the correct explanations, employing the teaching and correct usage of the scientific method with as many visuals, demonstrations and animations as it takes. A teaching presentation regarding the gravitational force, Newton 2, and Newton 3 for the Earth and Moon system will be shown, exemplifying the author’s approach.
