Surely there is some rough pricing out there on the cost to get it into orbit and the estimated annual costs to keep it there and running? Perhaps the type of satellite would make a bit diff in price. I am interested in a satellite that would simply receive and retransmit simple data packets of no more than 1 meg or 2 at a time. No video or streaming audio or anything like that.

When you go into open seas the water has the deepest blue color I've ever seen, but if you take some of it and put it into a glass, it's not blue at all. The same can be said of the sky. during day it's blue, but at night it turns black . Then again, that's space, but what color would the sky be?

Obviously, there is not enough oxygen on mars to breathe, and UV levels are pretty high. But if you took off a hypothetical spacesuit for say, 5 mins, would there be any effects on your body, and would the air feel the same as on earth?

How does the light from the sun reach the moon during the full moon phrase (SUN~EARTH~MOON) ?
And is it true that light does not flow/move in a straight line in outer space as it does on planet Earth?

The universe is expanding, and has been ever since the 'Big Bang'. But it is slowing down. What will happen when it stops? Will it reverse into the 'Big Crunch' and return to its state during the Planck Era? if so, does that mean the cycle will start again and create a new universe? Does that mean there must have been universes before ours? and therefore, will there be universes after ours?

I don't expect anyone to 'know the anwser' just interested in your views and opinions.

Earth revolves round the sun in elliptical path. Then why do we have 3 or 4 seasons throughout the world when the earth comes closer to earth twice and goes farther twice.
