| recognise that the phases of the Moon are due to its position in relation to the Sun and Earth | describe the relative positions of celestial bodies in the solar system |
| | describe how the relative positions of celestial bodies in the solar system can result in observable phenomena, e.g. eclipses |
| | recognise how data are gathered from Space that provide an insight into the nature of the solar system, e.g. satellites, telescopes, interplanetary probes |
