The Most Mysterious Object in The Solar System: Sedna
Sedna is a dwarf planet in the outermost reaches of the Solar System, orbiting the Sun far beyond the orbit of Neptune. It was discovered in 2003, and is roughly 1,000 km in diameter.
Sedna has one of the strangest orbit in the whole solar system with an orbital period of over 11400 years. Meaning that Sedna will come back in ~13000.
Imagine how many objects are over there and are still not discovered yet.
Sedna's orbit is one of the main reasons why many scientists think that Planet 9 exists.

There are more stars in the observable universe than grains of sand on earth.
Estimates suggest there are roughly 7.5 quintillion grains of sand, while scientists estimate there are around 1 sextillion to 1 septillion stars in the observable universe, that is 23 zeros.
This means there are thousands of stars for every single grain of sand on Earth.

Did you know that the Milky Way is even milkier when viewed from the Southern Hemisphere? This is because from the southern side of our planet, we get a clearer, more direct view of the dense galactic core.
Here’s a look at the Milky Way starting over the Southern Ocean (between Australia and Antarctica) from our @SpaceX Dragon window, complete with some aurora (Southern Lights) and fleeting Starlink satellites. Enjoy the view!

Having Paolo go 4/18 FG and 0/4 3FG, and also having Suggs go 1/13 FG and 1/11 3FG. Pulling off this win was impressive, Paolo and Suggs didn’t have the best game offensively. But still contributed to the teams success and on the defensive end having 5 stocks combined. This shows the ceiling for the Orlando Magic and what they’re capable of while missing Franz for that 2nd half. See you in Detroit.
