I read a lot of articles about space, but I can't recall ever hearing anything about this.... You hear around every now and again that earth, people, etc are made out of 'star stuff' from the fusion reactions in the cores of stars. Are we borne from a single star that went supernova approx where we are now? If so, (and my real question =p) is anything known about it? Big, small, hot, cold etc..

I was across the street with my girl and my homie mikey looking for scrap to cash in, and mikey was with the flashlight lookin for stuff and my girl was watching him, when all the sudden i look up and see a comet looking light, light green flying down towards the ground, maybe about 200 300ft up, kind of looked like a firework, but it was heading straight towards earth, and i then it just exploded into sparks, no noise at all, please tell me someone knows what this is, it couldnt be a comet, because it was light green, very bright and didnt just dissapear, it exploded with sparx. i was shocked at the moment but when i caught my senses i told my girl to look and finally she looked and it was gone...NOONE saw it but me, and now im all paranoid and thinking im crazy...Anyone know what this is?

fastest humans have ever got a space craft to go is somthing like 150,000 miles an hour. Cause in space there is in gravity slowing you down. And if this is true is there a way to go faster like using explosives or somthing.

I really tried not to sound like an idiot so take it easy please.

What was so controversial about these discoveries?

Why were they so controversial in (1. the scientific community and (2. to the general public?

How was the controversy ultimately resolved?

Finally, how did the scientific community advance/benefit from this controversy?

The speeds of these objects were given as:

Earth around the sun -- 67,108 mph
Earth and sun around the Milky Way galaxy -- 559,234 mph
Milky Way galaxy through space -- 1,342,161 mph

I have no quibble with the answer, and I understand the first and second objects, but my question is, how do you determine the speed of our galaxy through space? What is the frame of reference? What fixed point is this speed relative to?

Wouldn't they have better things to do like share their wisdom and technology with us or eat us and steal our planet's natural resources? Why do people who claim to have been abducted by aliens always say that they were anal probed? It seems like such a waste.

My six year old sister came home one day saying how the scientists blew up Pluto. She said they talked about it in class? I wasn't sure what she meant, assuming it was about Pluto not being a planet anymore.

I've been reading a lot about black holes lately, but I've found
nothing that says they actually exist, like factually. Is this true,
and if so, is there one in the Milky Way?

Please some one answer this b/c my friend and I got into a heated debate about this yesterday, to the point that he bet his iPhone, and i bet $600. He thinks that the earth spinning on it's axis forces a centrifugal force that makes the moon move around the earth. I, on the other hand, think that it is caused sort of like a sling shot as the moon comes closer gravity slings shots it back around us but not enough to escape earths gravity thus bringing it back around us again. Another debate we had was that he thinks we get a full moon when the moon is between the earth and the sun and the light on the moon is caused by a reflection from the earth, whereas I think that a full moon is when the moon is on the opposite side of the earth from the moon and light goes around the earth to hit it!!!!! somebody please help, I think I should get the iPhone, but I need to know the answer first.

Since the airplane cruise at a high altitude already, doesn't it have enough power to go higher? I think I saw a movie on this once and was not sure about the science behind the constraints...
