[Space fact 1] Neptune is smaller than all the other gas planets in the solar system, which are Jupiter, Saturn, and Uranus.
[Space fact 2] Shatner’s favorite episode is “The Devil in the Dark” because he says it contains all the elements that made Star Trek successful: intelligence and excitement.
[Space fact 3] India's Mars mission is cheaper than a Hollywood movie Gravity
[Space fact 4] If you were driving 60 mph in a car, it would take 271 years and 221 days to get to Mars from Earth.
[Space fact 5] All stars are made of the same basic ingredients: hydrogen and helium.
[Space fact 6] Italian author Andrea Camilleri once said, “In moments of crisis, all you gotta do is review your multiplication tables, and it’ll all blow over!”
[Space fact 7] The moon does rotate, but the time it takes to rotate around its axis is exactly equal to the time it takes to orbit the Earth and as a consequence, we always see the same side of the Moon. This isn’t a coincidence but this happens due to “tidal locking”, which causes the rotation of an object to sync up with its orbit. The tidal force from the Moon isn’t just making the seas and oceans move around, it also pulls at the solid bits of the Earth, ever so slightly slowing down the rotation of the Earth. If the Sun wouldn’t gobble up the Earth when it expands in 4-5 billion years, then some 50 billion years from now the Earth would be tidally locked to the Moon at which point the same side of the Earth would always be facing the Moon and the length of a day would be much longer than the 24 hours it is now.
[Space fact 8] No human could survive the low pressure of Mars. If you went to Mars without an appropriate space suit, the oxygen in your blood would literally turn into bubbles, causing immediate death.
[Space fact 9] On a diagram of the solar system to scale, with Earth about the diameter of a pea, Jupiter would be over 1,000 feet away from Earth and Pluto would be a mile and a half distant—and about the size of a bacterium. Our nearest star, Proxima Centauri, would be almost 10,000 miles away.
[Space fact 10] Uranus is the second-least-dense planet in the solar system, after Saturn. This low density means that you could hypothetically stand on Uranus' cloud tops.
