1. The universe contains around 50,000,000,000 galaxies, each of which has between 100,000,000,000 and 1,000,000,000,000 stars.
2. At the speed of light, time stops.
3. Dark matter makes up 83 percent of the matter in the universe, but we can’t see it and we don’t know what it is.
4. Time passes more slowly in orbit around the earth meaning returning astronauts arrive home slightly younger than if they had spent the same amount of time on earth.
5. Atoms are 99.9999999999999999% empty space meaning all the matter making up the entire human race could fit into a sugar cube…

F is for the faith
found out in the universe
life’s just dress rehearse!

So many people wonder
if others are out there
With every peal of thunder
into the sky they stare
Just hoping they might see
a space ship from somewhere
Whether or not it be
I really do not care
But it does seem too
conceited for us to say
That God would not do
more creations along the way
Would only two He mold
from little bits of clay
Throughout the universe untold
to walk with Him each day?
Either way’s alright with me
for it’s His choice alone
If He said, “Let it be!”
to some other bits of stone
It still remains a speculation
that the years have grown
But whatever your expectation
God left it as unknown.
