Strange Event Might Have Been A Primordial Black Hole Winking At Us - ScienceAlert
In 2019, astronomers recorded a distant star doing something unexpected.
The Moon is stealing time from the Earth, and it has been getting away with it for billions of years. Our planet spins so much slower than it once did that a single day has stretched from just 19 hours to the 24 we live by, and the Moon is still creeping away from u - Space Daily
Earth’s spin is slowing, the day is getting longer, and the Moon is drifting outward at about 3.8 centimetres a year, a figure measured by bouncing lasers off the reflectors the Apollo missions left on the surface. Two things in the popular telling are worth …
There are more trees on Earth than stars in the Milky Way. A major global estimate put the planet’s tree count at about three trillion, while NASA gives the Milky Way’s star count as roughly 100 to 400 billion. - Space Daily
The most cited global estimate puts the number of trees on Earth at about three trillion. NASA gives the Milky Way somewhere between 100 and 400 billion stars. Three trillion is more than seven times the high end of that range, so there are indeed more trees …
