Pole
An attractive force that acts between all matter, has mass, and is proportional to that mass
Gravity
The circular movement about an axis or a point.
Rotation
The outer atmosphere of the sun. A thin, extremely hot plasma over 1,000,000 deg. Celsius compared to around 6,000 deg. Celsius for the visible surface
Corona
The branch of science that studies the physical universe beyond Earth's atmosphere
Astronomy
The slant of Earth's axis which is 23.5 degrees from vertical compared to Earth's orbital plane around the sun; as a result the North Pole always points to the North Star
Tilt

Sun
A self-luminous celestial body consisting of a mass of gas held together by its own gravity in which the energy is generated by nuclear reactions in its interior
Star

solar eclipse
The 4 natural divisions of the year based on changes in temperature due to the varied amounts of sunlight (both intensity and daylight hours received); caused by the tilt of the earth during revolution
seasons
A curved path followed by a satellite as it revolves around an object
Orbit
