Top 10 Exciting Facts about Space
Solar system an interesting and unpredictable theme at all the time and it includes immeasurable amount of excellences. Here are some exciting information about the solar system and its related objects.
10. The lifespan of the solar system is around 4.6 billion years
When get back to the origin period of the solar system, it includes approximately 4.6 billion years. The scientist made the research about the lifespan of the solar system with the help of meteorites from that they examined an interesting result, which is the solar system is 4.6 billion years old. Through this interesting and unknown research result, we can know the period of solar system formation and its related aspects. This research also explains that every object in the solar system has this same lifespan in an estimated manner.
9. The orbit of solar system
In the solar system, all objects use same orbit that is a counter-clockwise direction. Scientist found that the direction of every object in the solar system is a counter-clockwise mode and the complete solar system is the formation of hydrogen cloud. This result gives the basic theme about the formation of the solar system and its essential core part.
8. Rotation of Sun with other objects
From the origin period to present minute of the solar system, the Sun is rotating in a same orbit way and it is accumulated with the amount of gas particles and dust. The rotation of Sun formed a gas disk, which covers the rotation of all planets and other types of objects. In addition to this, the Solar system also includes some interesting aspects about comets.
7. An effect of lightning on earth
As every year, lightning kills more than 1000 people approximately. Lightning is a substantial discharge of electrostatic power and it includes the electrically charged particles.
6. Power of one lightning
By and large, one lightning can give the power of electricity that is needed for the one month power usage of 10 million homes. Electricity that is produced from the lightning is a release of electrically charged particles within clouds.
5. The Speed of Sunlight
The speed range of sunlight is around 8 minutes and 19 seconds that is 499 seconds. This is a known fact for everyone. But, this speed range is the time taken of light travel to reach the Earth from the Sun surface only.
4. Actual lifetime of sunlight
Actual time of sunlight travel is really exciting. Exactly, the sunlight takes around 10,000 to 170,000 years for the process of photon travel from the central part of the Sun to the surface of the Sun. So, the light reaching the earth’s surface approximately includes the lifespan of a minimum of above 10,000 years to a maximum of 170, 000 years.
3. Temperature in the core of Sun
The temperature level in the central part of the Sun is about 13,600,000 Kelvin, but it will be reduced in a gradual manner while it travels towards the earth’s surface.
2. The movement of our earth through space
The Milky Way is rotating at a speed of 225 Km per second and the spin of the Milky Way Galaxy through space is 305 Km per second. From these statistics, we are travelling through the space at a speed of 530 Km per second. That means the total speed of our travel is 330 miles per second.
1. Movement of moon from the Earth
Every year, the moon moves 3.8 cm away from the Earth due to the tidal effects and the spinning speed of the Earth is reduced about 0.002 seconds in each day per century.

World's Most Powerful Radio Astronomy Telescope
The first step to building the world's most powerful radio astronomy telescope has been completed, with the launch of the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) in Western Australia. The ASKAP is made of 36 radio antenna dishes covering 126 square kilometres, and will be part of the Square Kilometre Array that will stretch across South Africa, New Zealand and Australia. This new array will provide us a much bigger and quicker view of the sky, and could help astronomers to better understand things such as black holes.

The Sun Arose Five Million Miles On A High Flame
California. U.S. space agency NASA, the movements of the sun's atmosphere is captured on video. This fantastic video Solar Dynamics Observatory of NASA (SDO) have been prepared by the rising sun in the space of half a million miles a flame appears. The lightness towards Earth, sending massive amounts of particles. These particles affective (electrically charged) are. fires in the flame initially revolved around the sun. August 31 explodes after the last of these, nearly half a million miles long, which turned out to be a filament speed of 900 miles per second was entering the space. However, this is not some kind of loss. lightness pictures of the sun taken by SDO NASA Spacecraft is the most sophisticated. In SDO isolated Wavelength Telescope are four in every ten seconds to send a picture of the sun.

Top 10 Facts About Agni-5
Agni-V is a solid fuelled intercontinental ballistic missile that has been developed by the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) of India. It will greatly expand India's reach to strike targets well beyond 5,500 km away.
1). India will break into the exclusive ICBM club of six countries including the United States, Russia, United Kingdom, China and France once the 50-tonne Agni-V is ready for induction by 2014-2015.
2). The Agni series of missiles, including Agni-V, is crucial for India's defence vis-a-vis China since Beijing has upped the ante in recent times by deploying missiles in Tibet Autonomous Region bordering India.
3). Tipped to be a game changer, Agni-V will make the world fear India. It will extend India's reach all over Asia, Africa and Europe. India can now strike any part of the world except America.
4). Once fired, it cannot be stopped. It travels faster than a bullet and can carry 1,000 kilograms of nuclear weapons. It can be launched using a special canister. Why, it can even be launched from a roadside!
5). With a range of 5,000 km, Agni-V, once validated and inducted into the armed forces after several more tests, will be India's longest-range missile to carry a nuclear warhead. It will have the capacity to carry a nuclear warhead weighing over a tonne.
6). Agni-V will give India the technological knowhow to launch many nuclear warheads using the same missile.
7). Agni-V can be configured to launch small satellites and can be used later even to shoot down enemy satellites in orbits.
8). It can be launched only on the direct orders from the Prime Minister. India hopes it turns out to be a weapon of peace, not war.
9). Seventeen metres tall, Agni-V's three-stages are powered by solid propellants. The first rocket engine takes it to a height of about 40 kilometres. The second stage pushes it to about 150 kilometres. The third stage takes it to about 300 kilometres above the Earth. The missile finally reaches a height of about 800 kilometres.
10). This will be India's first launch of a 5,000 km+ range missile.
