Students, parents and teachers -- this is a grand attempt to implement several "new tricks". If all is well, one should be able to move the cursor to a planet. The cursor will change to indicate a hot spot. When a hot spot is located, click on it to open the power point display associated with the planet. Your computer must have power point or power point viewer installed to view the power point report. Click open and the slide show will begin -- click to move the slide show forward.
