Re: General Quiz

Hi bobbym,

The Answer #5568 is correct, bobbym! Exellent!

#5570. State the values of  Moon's Surface area - Square kilometers (0.902 Earths), Volume - cubic kilometers (0.866 Earths), Mass - kilograms (0.815 Earths) approximately.

#5571. Proxima Centauri  is a red dwarf, inside the G-cloud, in the constellation of Centaurus. It was discovered in 1915 by the Scottish astronomer Robert Innes, the Director of the Union Observatory in South Africa, and is the nearest known star to the Sun, although it is too faint to be seen with the naked eye, with an apparent magnitude of 11.05. What the distance between the star and Sun (in Kilometers or light-years)?
