This is what modern US schooling does to children. There’s more to the Internet than Facebook, pornography, and captioned cat pictures you know.
Now, you ever notice how when astronauts go onto other planets the sky (universe) is always black? So, if there were life on other planets, for example, their sky would always be black .
The reason for that is because in space there isn’t enough gas for light scattering to occur. [Source] [NASA] [And a third]
Also, when astronauts “went” onto the moon, some placed a flag into the surface of the moon.
- How can you place a stick, whether it be plastic, metal or steel, into a huge, hard rock?
The moon isn’t a solid rock: From The University of Tennessee website: The Moon is coverered with a gently rolling layer of powdery soil with scattered rocks that is called the regolith; it is made from debris blasted out of the Lunar craters by the meteor impacts that created them. Each well-preserved Lunar crater is surrounded by a sheet of ejected material called the ejecta blanket.
- Wouldn’t the lack of gravity cause the flag to float away?
The moon has enough mass to have its own gravity well, roughly 1/6th that of Earth.
Just wondering.
Wondering is nice, but eventually you have to do research like I did.
