i know mate hahahaha.Good to hear you are fine. Being sick is poo.
As I said earlier, yep. This is coz of Stargazing live, isn't it? I love it.
If people fancy, how's about a few cosmic true or false questions to get me through the working day, culminating in a Briancoxbrianmaypatrickmooredaraobriainjodrellbank-tastic space fact hunt?
We'll start off easy, so True or false - Venus is the hottest planet in our solar system?

It's actually because the mrs and I were talking about space for hours last night and I fancied getting some boss facts on it. I am going to watch Stargazing too however.
I'm gonna say false on the first one.
Its true. Gets up to 500•C, hotter than Mercury which is closer to the sun. Due to the dense atmosphere you see.

They have really violent storms on Venus don't they?

It's a 'pea-souper' every day there. Here's a pic of the surface
Wow. How did they manage to get a camera past the outer atmosphere? I thought it was impossible to navigate due to violent winds, storms and such
I think it crashed landed and that explains the dodgy camera angle. Anyway stargazers, a space special Groucho's Fact Hunt (please read in the voice of Brian Cox);
99.9% of the land surface on Earth is NOT occupied by a human at any given time. This is how come no one is really struck by falling haemorrhoids, err, asteroids. The odds of dying from space debris falling on you is 1 in 5 billion.
While in use, the space shuttle orbited Earth at a speed of about 17,500 mph. At this speed, the crew could see a sunrise or sunset every 45 minutes.
The star Sirius B is so dense, a handful of it weighs about one million pounds.
A new star is born in our galaxy every 18 days.
Saturn, if you had a pool big enough, would float.
There are 14 known black holes, the closest being 8000 light years away. There's one at the centre of the Milky Way that we're orbiting around every day, apparently.
In space, if two clean surfaces of a metal come in to contact with each other, they will adhere. This is called contact welding.
Uranus is rather large (couldn't resist, but true nevertheless).
