INTERESTING FACTS • One million Earths could fit inside the sun – and the sun is considered an average-size star. • Light from the Sun can reach the Earth in only 8 minutes! This is called the speed of light . • The big bang is how astronomers explain the way the universe began. •   You can‘t walk on Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus or Neptune because they have no solid surface! • An asteroid about the size of a car enters Earth’s atmosphere roughly once a year – but it burns up before it reaches us. Phew!
