155 Space Trivia Questions For Some Out Of This World Entertainment

Space is big, we know. But the most remarkable thing about what’s out there, beyond the atmosphere, is how little we know about it.

The truth is, we’ve barely scratched the surface of our universe. It’s been estimated that we’ve discovered only 5% of it, while the remaining 95% is still a mystery — an unknown, unexplored, vast field of space facts left in the dark. Sure, we have our satellites, our astronauts, our telescopes, and loaded people already planning a vacation on the Moon. But what about the rest of us common folks with no skills or equipment to join the cause and get out there ourselves? How can we take a peek into the cosmos?

Simple. We stay lazy and let the astronomy experts do the hard work and throw us all the space trivia they find out over the years. Meanwhile, Bored Panda is here to fill in some gaps you may have and give you a taste of fun facts about space and the weird, wonderful things that happen when you leave Earth behind.
