Myths About Space

Space is not completely empty, it is a hard vacuum containing a low density of particles, predominantly a plasma of hydrogen and helium, as well as electromagnetic radiation, magnetic fields, neutrinos, dust, and cosmic rays.

Here we are gonna see some myths about space that we believe till now. 

We need to stop believing about these myth.

Dark side of Moon 

In reality both sides of the moon see the same amount of sunlight, however only one face of the moon is ever seen from Earth.

'Dark side' of the Moon refers to the hemisphere of the Moon that is facing away from the Earth. In reality it is no darker than any other part of the Moon's surface as sunlight does in fact fall equally on all sides of the Moon.

Can’t travel via an asteroid belt

People wonder whether the belt was made up of the remains of a destroyed planet, or a world that didn't quite get started. However, according to NASA, the total mass of the belt is less than the moon.

the asteroid belt is not very dense so there isn't much to avoid.

We can easily travel through an asteroid belt with necessary fuel.

Ball of Fire -Sun

The sun is not burning it's just glowing because of it was a big ball of gas , nuclear fusion takes place in the core of sun. 

Sound in space 

In  many Hollywood movies their will be huge explosion with dramatic sounds to attract audience.

Basically , no atmosphere in space . We know that sound travels only through atmosphere.  We can't say  that there is no sound in the universe apart from our planet. If you go someplace else with an atmosphere, then there will be sound, but it will probably be a little weird. On Mars, for example,  sound will be higher in pitch.

Sun is Yellow

In our  childhood we used to draw sun and we paint it with yellow crayons and we saw some more pictures in internet of sun with yellow. Even when we see sun ,we can recognise the color of sun in yellowish color. NASA also shows as picture of sun with yellow color for our attraction. However, the real color of the Sun is white. If you ever meet as astronaut or someone who has been to space, feel free to ask them.
