Everything is upside down

Category
I saw this picture the over the weekend


and it really had me thinking. What if the south pole really is the top? Who decided? Are there groups around whose goal is to get the South Pole recognized as the top? I'm sure Australians think this way all the time, but think about it, all the pictures we see of the solar system are upside down. Aliens could arrive and laugh at us for being so stupid, I so wanted to find some kid stoned on pot at the weekend and ask them what they thought

Gravatar Image1 - You know is funny, I am a science teacher, and just today I made my students to think the same. Just because someone decided that the north is up now we believe forever that is true. For my fifth grade students is to hard to think that we all live standing up and that the aussies do not live upside down. right now I am searching to find how to make them understand about the earth's center of attraction. But I really wnated to let you know that you made me laugh and be back at my classroom!
