Did you know?....

  1. If given the same mass, our body would actually be hotter than the sun.
  2. A solar panel 100 miles by 100 miles (161x161km) in the Mojave Desert (USA) could replace all the coal now burned to generate electricity in the entire U.S.
  3. The world's densest wood, the Black Ironwood (Olea laurifolia), does not float on water and therefore sinks.
  4. The lightning bolt is 3 times hotter than the sun.
  5. If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days, you would have produced just enough sound energy to heat up one cup of coffee.
