Shadowing Practice: To Scale: THE SOLAR SYSTEM - Learn English Speaking with Video

If you look up an image of the Earth and Moon, you're gonna get a picture where they're quite close together.

Something like that.

But in reality, the Earth and Moon are about,

About that far apart, that is the Earth and the Moon to scale.

Taking the same concept but for the solar system, every single picture of the solar system that we ever encounter is not to scale.

If you put the orbits to scale on a piece of paper, the planets become microscopic and you won't be able to see them.

There is literally not an image that adequately shows you what it actually looks like from out there.

The only way to see a scale model of the solar system is to build one.

Welcome to Black Rock Desert.

This is Alex.

I'm Wiley.

He's going to be behind the camera.

I'm going to be probably making a lot of mistakes on camera.

We have 36 hours to measure the distances, trace out the orbits, and set up a time -lapse shot from up on top of a nearby mountain.

To create a scale model with an earth only as big as this marble,

you need seven miles of empty space so that's why we're here why did you guys come I don't have a job

at this scale the Sun is a meter and a half so about about that big around

So we are driving right now to Mercury, and we've arrived.

Venus is the same size as Earth.

I have the world in my pocket somewhere. And Earth.

And this is Mars, got a couple of robots rolling around on that one.

Once the time lapse is ready, we'll drive each orbit with a light.

Hopefully you'll be able to tell just how big they really are.

Onward to the outer planets,

Jupiter, Saturn,

that tiny light out there is our sun just over a mile away.

The sun is way, way out there now. So this is it.

This is the edge of the solar system.

So right now it's about 7 a .m.

We just woke up right before the sun's about to rise.

We are on Earth's orbit.

Wiley is over there holding our sun.

Cue the dramatic sunrise music.

So if we've made our model correctly,

your perspective from where Earth is on the model will match your perspective from standing on the real Earth.

So if you look back at the sun, you will see that the model sun and the real sun are the exact same size.

And that's how you can tell that the proportions are correct.

There are 24 people in the entire history of the human species,

billions of people who have actually seen the full circle of the Earth with their own eyes.

Following the breakfast, the astronauts went to the soup room where they donned their spacesuits.

This is man's attempt to get to the moon.

Zero.

We have liftoff.

Liftoff at 751.

In Earth orbit, the horizon is just slightly curved.

When you head on out to the moon, that horizon slowly curves around and upon itself, and all of a sudden, you're looking at something that is very strange, but it is very, very familiar.

Oh, my God, look at that picture over there.

Wow, that's pretty.

You can put your thumb up, and you can hide the Earth behind your thumb.

everything that you have ever known, all behind your thumb.

Not any bigger than that, way up there.

It's really beautiful.

You can cry.

That's what I really wanted to try and capture.

We are on a marble, floating in the middle of nothing.

When you sort of come face to face with that, it's staggering.

Thank you.

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?

Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
