Did You Know

 

Did you know, as far as is known, fire does not exist anywhere in the solar system except on earth?

Interesting. To think we are the only planet in our solar system where fire was created by humans and possibly electrical storms.

I didn't. Is that because of a lack of oxygen do you think? Thank you for continuing my education.

Andrew said...

Hmmm, there isn't fire on the sun?

Anonymous said...

Interesting! I didn't know that.

Birgit said...

That's weird! I never knew that. Right now, due to all the fires in Ontario and Quebec, it smells like a campfire where I am and it looks hazy but not as bad a NYC.

Wow

DUTA said...

It never entered my thoughts. There's some oxygen on all planets but not enough to create flames and smoke. We are 'the chosen' planet.

Jeanie said...

I think I recently heard that but don't know where!
