WEIRD YET TRUE

WEIRD YET TRUE

 

  

Even the scorching Sun can't burn the sky;

 

 

Nor can any amount of rain drench the sky;

 

 

Even a heavy snowfall will not solve water problems;

 

 

While digestive enzymes burn the eaten food in the stomach into calories, they don't harm your belly.

 

 

Although two-thirds of the Earth is ocean/sea water, it still doesn't intrude or encroach into the landscape and annex it with water territory;

 

 

Even if the mother-hen tramples its chickens, they will not be maimed;

 

 

We do not get two summers a year because seasons are controlled by Earth's fixed 23.5-degree tilt as it orbits the Sun just once annually. Each hemisphere tilts toward the Sun only one time per year, giving every location a single summer and a single winter.

 

 

The blinking stars you see in the night sky actually sent their light years or even millions of years ago. Because space is huge, light takes time to reach our eyes. When you look at a star, you see it as it was in the past, not as it is right now.

 

Even the strongest of a cyclone cannot dislodge a mountain. An external force cannot harm it. However, in the case of a volcano, if there is any internal turmoil, it is likely to erupt. Yes, a volcano erupts when hot liquid rock, called magma, builds up enough pressure underground to force its way through the Earth's crust. This happens due to high temperatures, expanding gases trapped in the magma, and movement of the large plates that make up the Earth's surface.
