Did You Know?
According to Chinese historical traditions, a man and a woman landed on the moon over 4,000 years ago. The engineer Hou-Yih and his wife, Chang Ngo, flew to the moon on a celestial bird. Their description of the conditions on the moon were incredibly accurate. Was their journey the result of an over-active imagination or did they really go there using technology that was later lost to mankind?
In 1976, two Russian scientist claimed that the moon is not a natural satellite of Earth but a hollowed-out planetoid fashioned by a highly advanced, techologically sophisticated civilization into an articial inside out world which was steered into orbit around the Earth aeons ago.
The star Sirius is about 25 times brighter than our Sun.

The world's largest coffee pot is located in Davidson, Saskatchewan. It measures 24 Feet(7.3 Meters) tall, is made of sheet metal and could hold 150,000 8 ounce cups of coffee.
The Tokyo World Lanes Bowling Center is the largest bowling establishment in the world. It has 252 lanes and one very tired pinsetter.
