10 ) We may be drinking comets
Have you ever seen a comet? They're big, bright, and kinda rare today. But did you know that comets were much more common in the past?
9) The Solar System is full of space debris
Space debris is becoming an increasingly concerning issue in our modern world.
8) The solar system has a zodiacal diffuse light.
Zodiacal light is a celestial phenomenon that paints the sky with a faint triangular glow that appears to extend from the Sun's direction.
7) The Kuiper Belt has a donut shape.
Now, you may be wondering why this region, filled with icy objects, resembles a donut. Is it because it's Homer Simpson's favorite donut?
6) Mercury has no rings, no moons, no atmosphere, and no life.
If Mercury was a character in Friends, it would be that weird guy who keeps popping up but no one really knows anything about him
5) Meteoroids, meteors, and meteorites are three different things.
Now, I’m sure you’re thinking,
4) Meteor showers happen all over the year
But what exactly are these shooting stars?
3)The Earth is constantly hit by meteoroids, just like the Moon.
There are millions of tiny space rocks hurtling toward Earth and the Moon every single hour.
2) Collision probe-asteroid probability in the asteroid belt is very low
The asteroid belt may contain millions of asteroids, but a space probe navigating through it will still miss them unless it intentionally aims toward one.
1) Saturn would float, sort of
Yeah, you got it right! Saturn's overall density is only 70% that of water, the outer layers of the planet are actually even less dense than water.
