Here are some random facts for you.
1. On Saturn, there’s an enormous spinning hexagon in the clouds at its north pole, which is about twice the size of Earth. It’s a continuous vortex, similar to a hurricane that’s about 50 times larger than a typical Earth hurricane. One scientist refers to it as, “The belly button of Saturn.”
2. The shortest English word that has all five vowels is “eunoia”, which is six letters long. It means “beautiful thinking” or a positive mental state. (The pronunciation is “yoo noy uh.”)
3. Ladybugs are called “ladybirds” in England.
4. The average cloud weighs 1.1 million pounds. But the weight is distributed across such a big space, it still floats.
5. We all know the first flight Orville Wright took, but it turns out his LAST flight was on a plane that Howard Hughes was flying in 1944. The plane had a wingspan of 123 feet, which made it three feet longer than the DISTANCE of Wright’s first flight.
