What, did you not do your homework?
1. Neil Armstrong
2. Alpha Centauri
3. Saturn
4. different craters formed at different times (that's why there are craters within craters), but mostly between 3 and 4 billion years ago.
5. The 10th was just discovered recently, the others, in order, are: mercury, venus, earth, mars, jupiter, saturn, uranus, neptune, pluto.
6. Our sky is blue because more blue light is absorbed by the air and is scattered about, and more of it reaches your eye when you're not looking at the Sun (that's why the sun is not blue too)
7. Charged particles from the solar wind get directed by the earth's magnetic field up to the poles, where they interact with oxygen and nitrogen in the atmosphere, increasing the energy state of the atom and causing electrons to get knocked out of them. When the electrons return to the atom, a bit of light is emitted. That light is aurora borealis.
8. yes, if there is not cloud cover of course.
9. Big craters were formed by asteroids smacking into the Moon.
10. Jupiter is a gas giant, mostly hydrogen, with some helium, methane, water, ammonia, and a molten rock core thrown in.
11. yes.

Q6)It's a reflection from the oceans, the sky has no colour
Q7)? (what is an Aurora?)
Q8)Yes if there is no "city light" polution

A1) The cameraman
A2) Alpha Centauri
A3) Jupiter
A4) Don't know
A5) 9 not counting the new planetoid discovered
A6) It is the light from the sun refracting through our atmosphere
A7) It is our atmosphere "catching" or intercepting Solar winds from the sun.
A8) Yes
A9) The same way that craters on the Earth formed by collisions with space objects.
A10) Gases (can't remember which ones) it is a gas giant.
A11) Yes it does not as spectacular as Saturn but still there.

Neil Armstrong
Proxima Centauri
Saturn
Still form from impacts
9 including Pluto but some discount this
Due to the way visible light is affected by the atmosphere
The magnetic poles of the eath attract charged particles given off by the sun
you can see part of it every night (local stars) but yes on very good nights the whisp of the body of the milkyway is visible.
impacts from space (comets, asteroids etc)
Mostly gas
No

Okay I'll answer one of those..... one!
The nearest star to earth besides the sun is called Proxima Centauri and its over 4 light years away.... that's about twenty five Trillion miles. Better pack a lunch if you're going.

I will answer question 4 since nobody else did. When Neil Armstrong stepped on the moon he said "that's one step for man, one giant leap for mankind..." he forgot to say "a" ... "That's one step for 'A' man."
