erms. sunday lor. read the papers. know that pluto is no longer considered a planet. it's a dwarf planet because of its size and orbit.
Dwarf Planet = Small solar system bodies, applicable to numerous asteroids, comets and natural satellites.
so sad right. dunno leh. as one of the stargazer said " i miss having nine planets. i remember trying to memorise all of them in order as a kid, to score points at tests." yeap. i agree.
really love astronomy. (:
SoMe FacTs :
1) If you were to drive a car at 100km per hour, 24 hours a day. you could reach the sun in about 170 years. It's about 150 million km away from earth. cool eh?
2) It takes the light from the sun over 8 minutes to reach the earth. hat means that if the sun blows up right now, you will still have 8 more minutes of life to enjoy. i'm amazed by this.
3) The American flag that was planted by Neil Armstrong when he landed on the moon in 1969 is still there. wow. that's like 37 years ago? i love the fantasies
