Navigation In Space

 Kia Ora fellow readers and welcome back to another blog post. For today's blog post I will be talking about certain things to do with space. We had to answer questions that were on the hurumanu blog. 

A solar system is something in space smaller then a galaxy or universe but yet humans still don't know exactly how large our solar system is. In our solar system their are stars, meteors, planets such as the moon and earth, asteroids and more. The milky way is an example of a spiral galaxy which contains no stars of young age meaning they are all older. 

A nebula is a giant cloud of gas and dust in space some nebulae come from the gas and dust that has been thrown out by the explosion of a dying star. A star is a ball of gas mostly hydrogen and helium held together by gravity. 

There is no up or down in space which can affect the way people think or move in space. Stars can be used to navigate because of different constellation and shapes/ positions of stars that are in the sky. 

Three facts about the black hole's are you can't directly see a black hole. The first black hole wasn't discovered until X-ray astronomy was used and the last one being our solar system probably has a black hole.

Spaghettification means noodle affect which means something that can stretch into long thin shapes.
