Space junk
Space junk is any human-made object orbiting Earth that no longer serves a useful purpose. Scientists estimate there are about 500,000 pieces of space junk today, including fragments from rockets and satellites, and everyday items like spanners dropped during construction of the International Space Station!

Moon
The Moon has no atmosphere, which means there is no wind to erode the surface and no water to wash the footprints away. This means the footprints of the Apollo astronauts, along with spacecraft prints, rover-prints and discarded material, will be there for millions of years.

14 seconds
If we scaled the entire timeline of the cosmos to a calendar year, the entire recorded history of human life to present day would be 14 seconds. “Every person you’ve ever heard of lies right in there. All those kings and battles, migrations and inventions, wars and loves, every thing in the history books happened here in the last 14 seconds of the cosmic calendar.”

The largest asteroid
The largest asteroid in our solar system is a mammoth piece of space rock named Ceres The asteroid -- which is sometimes known as a dwarf planet -- is almost 600 miles in diameter. Its by far the largest in the Asteroid Belt between Mars and Jupiter and accounts for a whole third of the belts mass. Ceres surface area is approximately equal to the land area of India or Argentina.

silent
In space, no one can hear you scream, but no one can really hear anything, anyway. There are some vibrations and sound waves that are imperceptible to humans, but overall, space is a vacuum, and its pretty darn quiet.
