Things that keep me awake in wonder...

If there are more stars in the sky than grains of sand on earth - then why is the sky at night not white?

Would bees be a lot fatter if we didn't steal all their honey?

Do birds get angry in the morning getting woken up by other birds singing?

Who measures the course for a 'marathon' and just how accurate is it if you cut corners?

If something is neither here nor there, then where the heck IS it?

Do people actually believe this ?

I believe there are more stars than grains of sand. Would it be wrong to believe that then?

Because Galaxies don't each bones these days.........

Not at all,we can all believe what ever we want

Only because they don't want to get chocolate on their fur

It used to be!

...amd have black skin (polar bears that is...)

 

[SwingsitlikeHogan]

which is close to why the sky at night isn't white

Some text.....

if you assume a grain of sand has an average size and you calculate how many grains are in a teaspoon and then multiply by all the beaches and deserts in the world, the Earth has roughly (and we're speaking very roughly here) 7.5 x 10(to the power 18) grains of sand, or seven quintillion, five hundred quadrillion grains........ Our stargazer gets a Hubble telescope and a calculator, so now we can count distant galaxies, faint stars, red dwarfs, everything we've ever recorded in the sky, and boom! Now the population of stars jumps enormously, to 70 thousand million, million, million stars in the observable universe (a 2003 estimate), so that we've got multiple stars for every grain of sand — which means, sorry, grains, you are nowhere near as numerous as the stars.

Sorry, I'll go with them and not you :ears:



One more for luck..

Brace yourself for some big numbers. Astronomers believe there are probably somewhere between 1 sextillion (21 zeros) and 1 septillion (24 zeros) stars in total:

1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000

or…

1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000

That’s based on recent discoveries that there are a lot more tiny, faint stars lurking in large galaxies than previously thought, and some educated guesswork on the total number of galaxies themselves.

Even the smaller figure is 10 times larger than the estimated number of grains of sand that exist on Earth.

Maybe you can believe the TRUTH now..... keep your weight a little more on the left side :rofl:
