12 MIND-BOGGLING SPACE FACTS

1. The ISS is only 200-ish miles away from the Earth's surface. You probably drive more than that every week. https://www.space.com/8876-international-space-station-numbers.html 2. Pluto has cryogenic volcanic activity - literally, ice volcanoes. https://www.nasa.gov/feature/possible-ice-volcano-on-pluto-has-the-wright-stuff 3. Olympus Mons, on Mars, is the biggest mountain in the Solar System. It's huge, but it's so spread out, it would be an easy climb. You could just walk right up it, and that would be relatively easy because of Mars' weak surface gravity. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olympus_Mons#Description 4. There's a type of neutron star called a "magnetar" which has a magnetic field that's so powerful that being within 1,000 miles of one would warp all the atoms in your body. Even from a distance of 100,000 miles away, it would be able to wipe out the data of every credit card in your wallet. https://futurism.com/50th-anniversary-of-space-exploration
