Planets: 4 Fascinating magical facts you don't know: Universe is incredibly beautiful and weird at the same time. All planets in the solar system carrying a world into them with surprising tactics that often feels like a magic to humans on earth. Being a part of a place like space with infinite secrets, researchers are always excited to discover more of its hidden science. For planets in our solar system, many unexpected discoveries have been made in science which are quite surprising to us. In this article, you will discover four immensely surprising facts about some planets from our solar system that are quite shocking revelations in the space science.
1. Sun reverses it's direction in the sky after rise in Mercury
Could you ever expect sun to rise in sky, move forward and then go backward for sometime and then move forward again? What if you see this happening someday on earth. You would probably feel like some magic happening in the sky.
But that's what exactly happens for mercury. A day in a mercury happens like that only and if you by chance fall in the more accurate position on the surface of planet mercury, you can witness sun rising, then setting and then rising again in the sky.
2. Sun looks like a dim lit spot from Venus
Sun is seen as a most bright object in the sky on earth. Venus, despite being the closer to sun than earth, doesn't cast sun so shiny and bright in its sky.
Venus has such a dense cloud and atmosphere covering its sky that a very lesser amount of sunlight is able to pass through and so the sky appears more of low lighting and yellowish on Venus. The clouds cover sun too and make it look more like a dim lighting object.
Isn't that a quite surprising fact to discover about a planet that is hottest and second closest to sun in the solar system?
3. Uranus carry an ocean of diamonds with floating diamonds
How does it sound knowing about ocean of diamonds on another planet which is considered a precious object on earth with limited source.
It has been discovered that diamonds are formed on planets Uranus, Neptune along with some of the stars as well and has been found as a more common natural resource in space than in earth. But for someone on earth, diamond rain and its ocean really is something incredible to discover.
4. Uranus orbits sun nearly a right angle from its orbit
Don't that sound little scary to consider a planet rotating sideways, approximately perpendicular (at a tilted position of 97.77 degree) to its orbit. But that's what the case is for Uranus. It's the only planet in the solar system with such an awkward rotation axis.
While the actual cause of this altered position of planet Uranus is yet to be discovered, hit from a big object in the past is guessed to be the reason behind. Anyway how do you feel if sometime earth shifts to the same position and continue orbiting sun like Uranus does. It's not less than magical.
These are just few of the surprising facts about some planets. There are many discoveries made and mysteries trying to be unfold by science to explore more about each of the planet and other parts of space. I hope you get to know some amazing facts about universe today.
