Do You Know??


  • That just a pinhead of the Sun's raw material could kill someone up to 160 kilometer away!
  • That Saturn has such a low density that it would float if put in water!
  • That Jupiter’s magnetic field is so massive that it pours billions of Watts into Earths magnetic field every day!
  •  That the energy in the sunlight we see today started out in the core of the Sun 30,000 years ago - it spent most of this time passing through the dense atoms that make the sun and just 8 minutes to reach us once it had left the Sun!
  • That the star known as LP 327-186, a so-called white dwarf, is smaller than the state of Texas yet so dense that if a cubic inch of it were brought to earth it would weigh more than 1.5 million tons
