AMAZING FACTS ABOUT OUR UNIVERSE

The Mystery Of The Big - Bang
The Universe is a vast expanse of emptiness
that makes us wonder if we are the only life forms that live or if we can actually make interstellar space travelling possible.

Our Galaxy 
The Milky Way galaxy along with few other galaxies can be seen through the nacked eye from Earth at night depending on how dark is out there.

The Dark Matter
Everything that exits in the universe accounts for only 5% of the mass of the universe, the rest 95% is unaccounted for and is what scientists call as "DARK - MATTER".

The Alcohol Cloud
Around 26,000 light years away is Sagittarius B, an interstellar gas cloud that contains vinyl alcohol which is very essentials for the existence of life.

The Moon
Project A119, a project developed in the 1950s by the U.S. Government with the aim of nucking the Moon, a plan which they assumed would give them a leverage in the space.

The Ponzo Illusion
Your brain inflates the size of the moon to make it appear larger than it really is when you look at it through the horizon. If you don't believe it, block out everything else from your hand and watch the size shrink.

The Moon - Dust
Small shards of Silicon Dioxide glass made the Moon - Dust feel really smooth and smell like gunpowder, claimed the astronauts of the Apollo missions.

Shine Like A Diamond
A collapsed star, measuring 4,000 km.(2,485 miles) across and having a core composed of 10 Billion Trillion Trillion carats was found in 2004 by scientists.

The Floaty Planet
With a density of  .687 grams per cm. cubed SATURN would actually float on water even though it is massive planet.
when compared to water at .998 per cm. cubed,

Rotation And Revolution
The planet VENUS completes its journey around the Sun faster than it can spin around it's own axis. that means that the days are longer than a year on VENUS.

Cold Welding
In space, any two metals that touch each other can be permanently welded to each
other. The vacuum  of the space is enough to do that and not heat. since metals on space, shuttles are covered by a layer of oxidized material, they don't pose that risk.

THE SUN

                                  SUN The Sun  is the star  at the center of the Solar - system, ' The HEART of our Solar - system'.  It is a yellow dwarf star.   The Sun gives life to the  Earth  and the Earth would have no life at all without the energy it receives from the Sun. WHAT IS THE SUN MADE OF? All stars are made out of gas and plasma. The Sun consists mostly of hydrogen and helium. It also has some carbon, oxygen, nitrogen and small amounts of other gases.                                    In the center of Sun, there is a process called Nuclear Fusion. During nuclear fusion, hydrogen atoms become helium. That means that the hydrogen is slowly being turned into helium. WHAT TYPE OF STAR IS IT? Astronauts classify stars based on the In this system, stars are assigned a letter: O, B, A, F, G, K or M . Stars are grouped into these classes based on their color and / or temperature .The Sun is a class G star. Morgan - Keenan system. HOW BIG IS TH

                           ASTRONOMY  Astronomy  (from  Greek :  ἀστρονομία ) is  a  natural science  that studies  celestial objects and  phenomena . It applies  mathematics ,  physics , and  chemistry  in an effort to explain the origin of those objects and phenomena and their  evolution . Objects of interest include  planets ,  moons ,  stars ,  galaxies , and  comets ; the phenomena also includes  supernova   explosions,  gamma ray bursts ,  quasars com ,  blazars ,  pulsars , and  cosmic microwave background radiation . More generally, all phenomena that originate outside  Earth's atmosphere  ki  are within the purview of astronomy. A related but distinct subject is  physical cosmology , which is the study of the  Universe  as a whole. [1]

EARTH

The Earth is the third planet from the Sun in the Solar - system. The Earth is the only planet in the Solar - system known to harbor life.   LIFE ON EARTH The Earth's temperature, atmosphere and many other factors are just right to keep us alive. The Earth is just for enough away from the Sun, that it is at the right temperature to have liquid water on it's surface. In fact, most of Earth's surface is covered in  water,  which is very  important  for  living things. SIZE OF THE EARTH The Earth is the biggest of all the terrestrial  planets. but the Earth is much smaller than the gas planets, like Saturn and Jupiter, that are in the outer Solar - system. If you cut a piece of string long enough to wrap it around the Earth, it had be 24,901 miles long. That's longer than 365,000 Football fields. THE EARTH'S ORBIT AND ROTATES The Earth is still 93 Million Miles away from the sun. since it's so far away. it takes the earth a
