- The students at St. James School celebrated Earth Day with a visit inside the Earth Dome. The students learned about the many other aspects of the earth. The experience allowed students to enter a huge globe and see the earth from the inside out! The Earth Dome is a series of photos shot from our satellites of the surface of the world on cloud-free days. It has been used extensively across the U.S. to educate students about geographic as well as environmental issues. This 22-foot diameter by 19-foot high globe is constructed from 24 panels of fire resistant dacron material. Each panel represents one of our time zones that make up the 24 hours of each day.
