Earth's Rotation and Revolution: Understanding Earth's Movements

Earth's two main motions are:

* Rotation: The spinning of Earth on its axis. This takes about 24 hours to complete and causes day and night.

* Revolution: The orbiting of Earth around the Sun. This takes about 365.25 days to complete and causes the seasons.
