Did You Know?
  1. The Milky Way appears as a band of light in the night sky formed from stars and contains between 100 and 400 billion stars and at least 100 billion planets, with the naked eye we can see about 4,000 stars in each hemisphere of the sky. Stars that are discovered today are in general named for where they are in the sky or the person who found them; each star usually has more than one name, there were around 300 stars were named so far.
  2. The Milky Way, which is a barred spiral galaxy that is estimated to be around 13.6 billion years old, is a dish that measures approximately 100,000 light-years in diameter. The disk is not perfectly flat though, it is warped due to our neighboring galaxies large and small magellanic clouds.
  3. The Milky Way is warped, has a halo, and produces new stars at a rate of around 7 per year. Our Earth is located roughly halfway to the edge of the Milky Way, at a distance of about 26,000 light years from the center.
  4. The Pistol Star is the largest-size star, which has a mass about 100 times the mass of the Sun and a radius of about 100 million miles; the Sun is an average-sized star, and the smallest stars are less than 1/10th as massive as the Sun.
  5. About 4.5 billion years ago, a Mars-sized object a series of many smaller objects crashed into Earth, sending bits of Earth's crust into space. They fell into the planet's orbit and eventually coalesced, forming our moon, which was around 16 times closer to the Earth than it is today. Each year, the moon moves at a rate of 3.8 centimeters (1.5 inches) from the Earth since.
  6. Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun and the second-smallest planet in the Solar System after Mercury; Mars can easily be seen from Earth with the naked eye, as can its reddish coloring. The journey from Earth to Mars takes about 300 days; every two years Mars is at its closest point, only 55 million km from Earth
  7. NASA’s Parker Solar Probe launched from Florida Sunday, Aug. 12 2018 to begin its journey to the Sun, where it will undertake a landmark mission. The journey will send it skimming through the Sun's atmosphere at a pace of 450,000 mph — fast enough to get from Washington to New York in about a second. It will fly within 4 million miles of the Sun's surface — seven times closer than any spacecraft has gotten before. That heat shield will not only be exposed to sunlight, it must withstand blasts of 2,600 degrees Fahrenheit — while simultaneously maintaining the instruments on the other side at roughly room temperature. Parker Solar Probe will provide new data on solar activity and make critical contributions to our ability to forecast major space-weather events that impact life on Earth.
  8. Earth and Mars orbit the Sun; but Earth is closer to the sun, and therefore races along its orbit more quickly. Earth makes two trips around the Sun in about the same amount of time that Mars takes to make one trip.
  9. Astronomers are hunting for a "Planet Nine" after evidence of its existence was unveiled on Jan. 20, 2016. This undiscovered super-Earth-sized planet would have an estimated mass of ten Earths, a diameter two to four times that of Earth, 5,000 times the mass of Pluto, and an elongated orbit lasting approximately 15,000 years.
  10. Venus was the first planet explored by a spacecraft and was intensely studied early in the history of space exploration. Venus was also the first planet whose surface was reached by a spacecraft from Earth. NASA’s Parker Solar Probe has made multiple flybys of Venus. On Feb. 9, 2022, NASA announced the spacecraft had captured its first visible light images of the surface of Venus from space during its February 2021 flyby.
  11. Venus is the second closest planet to the Sun, orbiting at a distance of about 67 million miles (108 million kilometers). It has a solid surface covered in dome-like volcanoes, rifts, and mountains, with expansive volcanic plains and vast, ridged plateaus. Venus is permanently shrouded in thick, toxic clouds of sulfuric acid that start at an altitude of 28 to 43 miles (45 to 70 kilometers). The clouds smell like rotten eggs!.
  12. Venus, which has a surface temperature of around 900 degrees Fahrenheit (475 degrees Celsius), is the hottest planet in the solar system with surface temperatures hot enough to melt lead. The intense heat means landers have only survived for a couple of hours.
  13. Venus is the second planet from the Sun and is Earth’s closest planetary neighbor. Venus rotates on its axis backward, compared to most of the other planets in the solar system. This means that, on Venus, the Sun rises in the west and sets in the east, opposite to what we experience on Earth. Venus has a slow axis rotation which takes 243 Earth days to complete its day. The orbit of Venus around the Sun is 225 Earth days, making a year on Venus 18 days less than a day on Venus.
  14. There is no atmosphere in space; space has no air, it is a vacuum; sound waves cannot travel through a vacuum and therefore no sound in space. 'Outer space' begins about 100 km above the Earth, where the shell of air around our planet disappears.
  15. The Sun is a hot bright ball of hydrogen and helium at the center of our solar system, and it is becoming increasingly hotter (or more luminous) with time. The Sun is 864,000 miles (1,392,000 km) in diameter; about 1.3 million Earths could fit inside the Sun.
  16. There are about 3 trillion trees on our planet, this means there are around 420 trees for every person on the Earth; there are 400 billion stars approximately in our own galaxy, the Milky Way.
