Did you know that
- The International Space Station is actually not in space; it's in a very space like layer of the Earth's atmosphere called the exosphere?
- The closest star to the Earth not including the Sun is in the Alpha Centauri star system and is called Proxima Centauri?
- All 4 Mars rovers ever to land on Mars not including landers were launched by the United States?
- Around 400 astronauts have been in space?
- Despite popular belief; Andromeda is not the closest galaxy to the Milky Way; that honor belongs instead to the Small Maganellic Cloud?
- The barcode, the smoke detector, among other products were originally made for astronauts in space?
