INTERESTING SPACE FACTS:- Space contains many secrets, mysterious things and so much fun. Today, here we are telling some Space facts.
INTERESTING UNKNOWN SPACE FACTS
FACT NO. 1:-
Any two or more same metal can be welded in space by joining them together.
If we are on Earth, we need welding machine to weld any metal [Note:- some metals that can't be welded like titanium, steel, aluminum, carbon steel, stainless steel and copper]. But, in space we don't need any equipment or machine to weld the metals, we need just two pieces of same metal or more to be welded by touching them each other.
REASON:- It happens because the atoms of individuals metal have no idea of knowing that they are different pieces of metal.
That effect is known as Cold welding.
FACT NO. 2:-
Taste and smell of our galaxy milky way.
In 2009, when some astronomers were searching for new molecules in the interstellar objects with the help of IRAM telescope. Then, they found a gas cloud at the center of the milky way galaxy and in that cloud, a chemical called ethyl format was present.
Ethyl format is responsible for raspberry's flavor and its smell like rum.
REASON:- It smells like rum and taste like raspberry because a gas cloud is present at the center of our galaxy that has a chemical called ethyl format.
FACT NO. 3:-
The weight of only one spoon neutron star is 10 million tons.
The mass of a neutron star is about 1.4 times more than our sun. The neutron star is about 20 km in diameter means that it is not so much bigger, even it is not much bigger than a small city.
REASON:- Because a neutron star is so dense on our planet Earth, its diameter is not so much bigger than a small city, even then its mass more than our sun.
FACT NO. 4:-
The speed of Venus's wind are 50 times higher than speed of its rotation.
The speed of wind on Venus planet is 85 miles per hour (300 km per hour) at the clouds top.
There is also possibility of life on the surface of Venus.
REASON:- Because, Venus has atmosphere. If it were 1st planet of solar system then it wouldn't have any kind of atmosphere. Venus is the hottest planet of our solar system, and its surface temperature is 894 degree fahrenheit.
FACT NO. 5:-
Uranus has day for 42 years and night for 42 years.
Uranus 7th planet of our solar system, and you should know that it has day and night for 42 years, you should also know that it was the first planet which was discovered using a telescope.
REASON:- The one pole of the two poles of Uranus is continuously in front of Sun for 42 years. Uranus is inclined to 98 degree to its axis.
FACT NO. 6:-
The planet which is made up of diamond.
55 Cancri e is a planet which is another solar system and also revolves around its sun 55 Cancri A.
Its surface of its planet is made up of Carbon. 55 Cancri e was discovered on 30 August 2004 and announced that 55 Cancri e could be Carbon planet.
It is also known as super Earth because of its diameter is twice of the Earth's diameter, and it completes its one year just in 18 hours because it is very near to its sun, due to which its temperature is above the 2000 degree celsius.
REASON:- 55 Cancri e is very near to its sun 55 Cancri A, due to which it is very hot planet and also internal pressure is pressured on this planet and that are the main things in diamond making process.
It was estimated that one third of its mass is made up of carbon.
The planet that rains glass.
In our universe there is a planet that rains molten glass, HD 189733b has deadly weather and it's 13.5% bigger than jupiter, and also hot, bigger than our planet Earth. Sometimes, its outer temperature reaches to 3000 degree celsius.
It completes its one rotation just in 2 days and 2 hour with speed of 152 km per hour.
REASON:- It seems planet of blue color and the reason behind its color is that silicate particles are found on this planet, and as you know that its outer temperature is 3000 degree celsius due to which the silicate particles are molten and turned into glasses. On this planet, its hot wind speed is 5000 miles per hour which takes the glasses along with itself rains on this planet in the form of glasses.
This molten glass rains is rained in horizontal direction.
FACT NO. 8:-
The moon is getting 1.5 inches (3.8 cm) farther away from earth every year.
Many years ago moon was about 14,000 miles (22,000 km) far from our earth, but due to evolution now moon is about 250000 miles (400000 km) far from earth. Its visual size is very equal to the our sun from earth that's how we can see solar eclipses.
But, in future about 600 million years slowly slowly the moon will have gone very far from earth and its visual size will be very small from earth, due to which there will be no solar eclipses.
REASON:- Moon is driven by its own gravity and the earth's rotation, and when the tides raised in ocean cause drag thus the speed of earth rotation becomes slow. The result is that the loss of angular momentum is compensated for by the moon speeding up, and thus moon is moving farther away.
FACT NO. 9:-
The rotation speed of neutron star is 600 times per second.
Neutron star are very small and compressed star, they are not so much bigger than a small city and they have very strong magnetic field. When neutron star born it can rotate at least up to 60 times per second. In a crowded star cluster near the center of our galaxy milky way, the fastest spinning neutron star ever found has been discovered whose spinning time is estimated up to 716 times per hour.
REASON:- Neutron stars are formed by collapsing of massive stars. As all stars rotate, the principle of angular momentum says that as a massive star collapse then it will rotate rapidly to preserve the angular momentum. 
FACT NO. 10:-
Black holes don't let even light to pass through them.
Due to black hole's inexhaustible density and infinite gravitational force, the light can't pass through black holes and another fact about black hole is that due to inexhaustible density and gravitational force, the time passes slow in the its event horizon.
REASON:- Due to its inexhaustible density and infinite gravitational force, black holes doesn't let even light to pass through it.
