The Noon Day Project

Project Goals

The Noon Day Project is geared towards students in grades five through twelve who would like to reccreate the measurement of the circumference of the Earth. This project is held twice a year, once in September and once in March, and is offered to classes from all over the World. The key is to have two participates who's latitude coordinates are different to produce enough of a numerical difference for calculation purposes. The class will also need to be able to provide their latitude coordinates when signing up for this project.
