🚨 We’ve Been Lied To 🚨

All our lives, we’ve been told this sentence:

👉 “The sun rises in the EAST and sets in the WEST.”

Sounds true… but scientifically, it’s not.

🌍 The Sun does NOT move across the sky.
It stays almost fixed at the centre of our solar system.

So, what’s really happening?

The Earth is rotating on its axis.

As the Earth spins from west to east, different parts of the planet face the Sun—creating what we know as sunrise and sunset.

Sunrise = your location rotating into sunlight

Sunset = your location rotating away from sunlight.

The Sun didn’t move.

We did.

This is why science education matters—because everyday language can quietly plant big misconceptions.

At Iconic Educational Services, we suppory our learners to build a solid and reliable foundation for their academic success.
