Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q1: Is it really true that honey never goes bad?

A: Yes, it's true! Honey is a natural superfood. It has very little water and is very acidic, which makes it a horrible place for bacteria and germs to grow. If you keep it sealed, it can last forever.

Q2: How can a cloud weigh a million pounds but still float?

A: Great question! Think of a cloud like a giant collection of tiny, tiny water droplets or ice crystals. The air below the cloud is actually pushing up on it, just like water pushes up on a boat. This keeps the cloud floating, even though it's very heavy.

Q3: Why can't we collect all the gold from the ocean?

A: The gold is there, but it's spread out so thinly that it's like a single grain of sand in a giant swimming pool. It would cost much more money to try to collect it than the gold would be worth.

Q4: Did people really make a Frisbee with the inventor's ashes?

A: Yes! The inventor's name was Edward Headrick, and he loved Frisbees so much that he asked for his ashes to be made into a limited number of memorial Frisbees for his family and friends.

Q5: How can a day on Venus be longer than a year?

A: A "day" is how long it takes a planet to spin around once. A "year" is how long it takes to go around the sun. Venus spins very, very slowly, so it takes a long time to complete one spin (a day), but it zooms around the sun much faster (a year).
