Tardigrades can survive in space for ten days.
Pluto has got three moons. Pluto is brown. Pluto is a bit like an enormous comet and would get a tail if you put it into the Earth's orbit. A space probe will reach pluto in 2015.
The oldest exoplanet discovered so far is 12.6 billion years old.

And many other things.
I now have a picture of the Milky Way Galaxy produced by NASA from space telescope data as my desktop wallpaper.
