When we look at the farthest visible star we are looking 4 billion years into the past—the light from that star traveling at 186,000 miles a second, has taken that many years to reach us.

If one were to capture and bottle a comet's 10,000 mile vapor trail, the amount of vapor actually present in the bottle would take up less than 1 cubic inch of space.

Because of Pluto's irregular orbit, there are periods of times when it is closer to the sun than Neptune.

Pluto's thin atmosphere contains traces of methane, nitrogen and carbon dioxide.

The sun would look like a bright star from Pluto, since they are so far away from each other.
