Facts About Space (15 pics)

Please correct the heading: "Facts about space that children may have learned in 3rd grade except that these facts are not worthy of a 3rd grade education."

Stupid facts numbers 6, 8, 13, 15: No sh*t. Are these meant to make us feel threatened?
Truth about facts numbers 6, 8, 13, 15: yes, but to put the odds in perspective, you would probably be more likely to win the lottery every hour for the next 35 years than for any of these to happen in your lifetime.

Stupid fact number 7: Yes, Earth-like planets are certainly possible, and extremely likely, to exist.
Truth about fact number 7: Being visited by an alien species is as likely as you suddenly learning to play like Hendrix and compose like Mozart. Who knows?

Instead of this retarded sh*t, AC, why don't you add a little adult content every 30 or 40 years, to break up the monotony?

Something like this: Time and space are actually one fabric (or dimension). Every time you move through space, you are also time traveling. When astronauts go to the moon, they age about 4 seconds slower than everyone else on earth.

Now, imagine that humans can live for two thousand years. Next, imagine an astronaut who leaves earth and travels in any direction for 500 years, then returns, having made a round trip of about 1,000 years.

Everyone the astronaut knew on earth would be long dead, having aged much faster than our intrepid sojourner.

See? That wasn't so hard.
