Your Random Fact of the Day

The distance between the Sun and the Earth is 93 million miles, written in exponential notation as 9.3x10 to the 7th power (the lil 7 wouldnt work right) miles. But it only takes the light & heat radiation approx. 8 light seconds to reach the earth. Imagine being the poor cop that had to write THAT speeding ticket. :D

Now imagine that the sun suddenly ceased to exist. It would appear to us to still be shining brightly in the sky for another 8 light seconds.. Also.. because nothing can move faster than the speed of light, we would continue to orbit the non-existent sun for at least another 8 light seconds because gravity can not move faster than the speed of light. Crazy!
