What are some cool facts about the universe?

 Hello. Here are some extraordinary facts about our universe and its stars.

1. A photon (a particle of light) takes about 170,000 years to travel from the Sun's core to its surface.

This occurs because energy radiates slowly outward through the sun's radiation zone.

2. The most distant object ever produced by humans is the Voyager 1 spacecraft.

It has been traveling since 1977 and is still collecting data. It is the first man-made object to participate in an interstellar journey. (21.2 billion kilometers)

3. The tallest mountain in our solar system is on Mars, not Earth. It's called Olympus Mons (22.5 km).

4. The Hubble telescope allows us to see billions of years into the past.

The Hubble Telescope allows us to look at very distant objects in the universe. Thanks to this remarkable piece of engineering, NASA has been able to create incredible images, one of which is the Hubble Ultra Deep Field. Created using images from the telescope in 2003 and 2004, the extraordinary image displays a small patch of the sky in immense detail; it contains 10,000 objects, mostly young galaxies, and acts as a portal in time . In one photo, we are transported 13 billion years into the past, just 400 to 800 million years after the Big Bang, which is very early in terms of the history of the universe.

5. There is a gigantic cloud of alcohol in Sagittarius B.

Sagittarius B is a vast molecular cloud of gas and dust that floats near the center of the Milky Way, 26,000 light-years from Earth, 463,000,000,000 kilometers in diameter, and, surprisingly, contains 10 billion billion billion liters of alcohol. The vinyl alcohol in the cloud is far from being the tastiest beverage in the universe, but it is an important organic molecule that offers some clues as to how the first building blocks of life-giving substances are produced.

6. It takes our sun 225 million years to travel around the galaxy.

While Earth and the other planets within our solar system orbit the sun, the sun itself orbits the center of our galaxy, the Milky Way. It takes the sun 225 million years to complete one circuit of the galaxy. The last time the sun was in its current position in the galaxy, the supercontinent Pangaea was about to break apart and the first dinosaurs were emerging.

7. Neutron stars are the fastest-spinning objects known in the universe.

Neutron stars are thought to be the fastest-spinning objects in the universe. Pulsars are a particular type of neutron star that emits a beam of radiation that can be observed as a pulse of light as the star rotates. The rate of this pulse allows astronomers to measure the rotation.

What historical facts mess with your perception of time?

 

• Charlie Chaplin and Adolf Hitler were born in the same year, namely 1889.

In fact, their births were only four days apart, Charlie Chaplin on April 16 and Adolf Hitler on April 20.

• Static electricity was discovered by Thales in 600 BC, before Siddhartha Gautama (Gautama Buddha) was born in 563 BC or 480 BC.

• Construction of the Eiffel Tower began in 1887 and was completed 26 months later in 1889.

Meanwhile in Japan in 1889, the new Nintendo Game company was founded.

What are some surprising facts about Hollywood actresses?

 

• This is the woman who was once crowned the sexiest woman in the world, beating out Angelina Jolie, considered a Hollywood sex symbol. Megan Fox may be nearly perfect, but she also has some surprising physical flaws.

Megan has a condition known as brachydactyly. Her thumbs are short and appear swollen, with abnormally long nails.

• Actress Jennifer Garner has a crooked pinky.

A condition known medically as brachymetatarsia occurs when one of the bones in the foot is too short.

• Before Adriana Lima, one of Victoria's Secret's stars was Karolina Kurkova. This Czech model achieved supermodel status thanks to her sexy face and body. Her only imperfection might be her belly button. Karolina doesn't have one like other humans.

This condition was apparently caused by an operation he underwent as a child. Doctors theorized it was caused by an umbilical hernia.

What is something that most people don't know?

 “He cheated on me”

The above text flashed on my screen. It was from an old school friend I've been talking to.

She used to unburden herself by usually sharing all the issues she was dealing with, because of her recent split with this guy.

She said, “Juveria, when I got to know that he left me to get along with someone else, I lost every bit of confidence that I had in myself.”

This wasn't the first time I was hearing something like that.

Whenever some person had opened up to me about getting cheated on, they always mentioned how this whole thing made them feel like absolute shit about themselves.

They felt totally worthless, deplorable and undeserving of love.

They started projecting the whole thing on themselves, being dead sure that perhaps they were so trashy and that is why the person left them for someone better.

My heart goes out to all the people who have been through/are going through something like that.

I just want y'all to know that ‘It was never you'

It might seem like a hard thing to believe but the truth is that the way people choose to treat you has nothing to do with how you are.

You could give away every ounce of your soul to love someone and still get cheated on. Or you could kill someone everyday and still be loved by them till their last breath.

It's always them.

The way they treated you, most probably that's how they're functioned to treat people, and you were just another person in the series of people that are going to suffer ’cause of them.

Them leaving you for literally anybody, doesn't make you any less than anyone. You're still whole, and as breathtaking-ly amazing as you always were.

Please don't fall into this ugly trap of comparing yourself to someone else just because of one person’s dumbfuckery.

Know that you deserve absolute peace of mind and liberate yourself :)
