Believe It Or Not?

It took 386 million tons of rock in order to completed The World (in Dubai, UAE). The World is a development of 300 man-made islands built off the coast of Dubai. It's purpose to create a map of the world in the form of man-made islands. The only way to get to and from the islands will be by boat or air as there will be no roads leading to the islands, the ultimate in privacy. The cost of the islands average between $15-$50 US million, but the most expensive costs around $250 US million, and if you want to buy one you must be invited to do so. The World was completed on Jan 10 2008.

Earth

Earth is the 3rd planet from the Sun and the 5th largest planet in the solar system. It's about 4.5 billion to 5 billion years old based on radioactive dating of lunar rocks and meteorites, which are thought to have formed at the same time. It is estimated that only 1/8 of the surface of the Earth is suitable for human to live on, 1/3 is covered by oceans and 1/2 of the land is either desert 14%, high mountain 27%. The world's population is 6,804,623,519 as of April 23 2008. Hottest place: Al' Aziziyah, Libya 135.4 F (58 C); Coldest place: Vostok, Antarctica -128.6 F ( -89.2 C)

solar system

The Solar System consists of the Sun and the other celestial objects gravitationally bound to it: the 8 planets, their 166 known moons, three dwarf planets ( Ceres, Pluto and Eris and their 4 known moons) and billions of small bodies. This last category includes asteroids, Kuiper belt objects, comets, meteoroids, and interplanetary dust. The inner terrestrial planets are: Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. The outer gas giant ( or jovians ) are: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. The 3 dwarf planets are: Ceres is the largest object in the asteroid belt, Pluto is the largest known object in the Kupier belt and Eris is the largest known object in the scattered disc.

milky way

The Milky Way galaxy ia a barred spiral galaxy that is part of the Local Group of galaxies. Although the Milky Way is 1 of billions of galaxies in the obserable universe, the galaxy has special significance to humanity as it is the home galaxy of the planet Earth. It is extremely difficult to define the age at which the Millky Way formed, but the age of the oldest star of the Galaxy yet discovered is estimated to be about 13.2 billion years old. The Milk Way galaxy is approximately 100,000 light years in diameter, and is believed to be on average about 1,000 light years thick, It si estimated to contain at least 200 billion to 400 billion stars. The Milky Way has a thickness of around 12,000 light years
