Weird astro facts

Did you know that Lucy, a star in the constellation of Centaurus, is a huge diamond of 10 billion trillion trillion carats? Wow!!! Or that Pluto's moon Charon is considered to be a double dwarf, which means two planets orbiting each other? Or that Jupiter is so big that its mass is more than twice the mass of the rest of our Solar System's planets combined and that 1.000 Earths would fit inside Jupiter while the Sun could hold about 1.000 Jupiters? Oh my!
These and many more facts, yes facts, can be found inhttp://www.sciensational.com/astronomy.html.

Ok, these are not that weird - the most weird is that we are here, alive, in the middle of an unknown and totally wonderful cosmos full of black holes, dark matter and uncounted other fascinating phenomenons.
