World Cup Warning! Why Cheering for Your Team Might Be Dangerous ⚽🚨

Why Is Mars Red?
Q: How did the Milky Way originate?
After the Big Bang, hydrogen, helium and dark matter formed a gas that gravity pulled into stars and galaxies; over billions of years, the Milky Way grew by merging with other galaxies and is now centered around a supermassive black hole.
Why Is Mars Red?
Q: Why is Mars red?
Mars is red because its soil contains iron oxide, which gives the planet its rusty color; wind and dust suspend iron oxide in the air, reflecting sunlight and making Mars appear red.
How Long Can Humans Survive in Space Without a Spacesuit? 👨‍🚀🌌
Q: How long could a human survive in space without a space suit?
Not long; the lack of oxygen would cause you to pass out within seconds, and you would quickly face extreme cold and bodily changes that would be fatal without a suit.
