I was reading about galaxies, Milky Way etc the other day and have some questions that the book didn't answer, well not in a way that I would understand it :wink: .
Does the Milky Way include all the nine planets including the sun or is it just a galaxy?..stars, etc?
Could there be more solar systems out there besides our own?
Amazing really, so big is the universe...like in sunspots, 3 earths could fit in one of them.
Here's another one...how do astronomers determine that a big ball out there is a planet and not a moon? Couldn't a solid planet like Pluto be a moon like its moon Charon? How did they know that (Pluto) wasn't a moon as well? Or is it that a 'planet' orbiting another is its moon? :?
Does anyone think that there is an end to space? What would be outside of it it there was an end? ...God, heaven, hell? Maybe the space is a humongous planet with other small creations in it... like a crystal ball of God :lol: ... Sorry if that pokes some non-believers. I hope the word god doesn't urge anyone to start posting in here their views instead of in Evolution/Creation thread.. :P I am not interested in a debate :P
I wonder what kind of sounds there are in space? Explosions, scary noises as planets rotate? Is there any recording of space sounds?
Will be waiting for responses...http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/archivepix.html...a site for those interested in and awed by the universe.
