Astronomy & Space - June 2006

What is the EXACT reason the moon sometimes looks HUGE (like a silver dollar) in the sky and sometimes looks tiny (smaller than a dime).

Forget PONZO! That's a "maybe".

This photo is good, but would be better if taken on the same skyline.

I have seen this appear on the same skyline and I can't explain to my 10 year old wizard what is happenig. Can you?

I heard some astronomers on TV saying that there has to be something extremely dense nearby our solar system to explain pluto's strange orbit. . . they also said that binary star systems are MUCH more common than single ones; almost 98% (i think) of the stars we know about are binary

Doesn't it keep expanding? What is it expanding into? Do you think heaven is at the end of the universe?

Are all the occurrences on Mars (in the movie) likely? Could there be breathable oxygen on Mars? What about the gravity of the planet- is it approximately the same as that on earth?

We know that we cannot see Heaven or Hell from our physicall standpoint. I would like to get everyone's prediction on how long it will take to reach each destination. And given the lack of oxygen in space how fast will we travel.

What will I see if I went past all of the galaxies? I mean will I ever physically see heaven or hell. Is there something other than stars and galaxies out there? Does space ever end? And why are we in this specific location in space?
