The Sun Doesn't Go Down
It stays where it is
The earth turns around
Our planet spins
Ptolemy was wrong
Copernicus was right
The earth's shadow's
What we call night

The sun doesn't rise
It stays in one place
Why that look of surprise
On your face
Middle Ages are gone
It's the age of Einstein
Nuclear fusion
Makes the sun shine

The Sun Doesn't Go Down
It stays where it is
The earth turns around
Our planet spins
Gravity's so strong
Creates the stars
Clouds of hydrogen
Warping space/time

Hi Jim

 

A great subject and well written    :)

 

I've always been interested in how our universe was interpreted by ancient civilisations and how the forces of nature had their influence on religious customs and practices. I still love the idea of a sun god driving his chariot across the sky. 

 

One of my sons studied a Masters in Astrophysics at uni - I'd be lying if I said I understand much of what he tells me - but I still find it a fascinating subject   :)
