Pioneer 10 is the furthest object from earth made by human hand. It's flying at 80,000 mph and headed for Sagittarius in the middle of the milky way. It will take 10 million years to get there.

The bronze from which all Victoria Crosses are made is supplied by the Central Ordnance Depot in Donnington. This metal is cut from cannons captured from the Russians at Sebastopol during the Crimean War......supposedly!! Pretty cool if it's true. Loads of other stories i've read as well to be honest.

My favourite fact: sharks are older than trees.

My favourite geek fact: if you had a 2m pole and ran into a 1m room quick enough, you could get in before being impaled.

(It may not be quite 2m. But longer than 1m. And no angles needed)

In about 2 million years, this earth will literally be no more. At this point the sun will be hot enough, and dry up all of our oceans. Furthermore, as it enters it's giants phase, it will eventually burn through our ozone layer and fry us all.

Well not us right now, we will be long gone, and couldn't care less. But just thought I'd share some Friday joy

Daddy longlegs (as I know them by)are one of the most poisonous insects in England but because they don't have mouths and obviously cant bite they can't hurt us.

What we now eat and call Ice Cream was so named because upon first introduction its eaters were not sure if it was a nice cream.

My bad, it is billion, but is about 2. It will be another 1 to 2 for the sun to actually die, making 4.

some versions of infinite can be counted (are countable). Others can't.

Pizza Margherita is called Margherita after the Queen of Naples at the time, Legend has it that the queen grew tired of the gourmet French food that was being served on her trip to Naples, with her husband King Umberto I, in 1889. Raffaele Esposito of Pizzeria Brandi, who was deemed the most famous pizza maker of the times in Naples, was then asked to make her a pizza.

All of this to say that PINEAPPLE DOESNT BELONG ON PIZZA. FACT!

"Colonel Saunders was 40 years old before he first cooked a chicken "
So possibly he was 20 years old before he knew what a chicken was?
