Code:
The Astronomical Unit (A.U.) from the Sun to Neptune is 29.

An A.U. is the distance from the Earth to the sun, which totals to about 150,000,000 kilometers

A light year is 300,000 kilometers per second (km/s), the speed of light. It would take us one year to travel a light year at the speed of light.

There is a fun way to remember the 8 planets.

The Banana Tree isn't actually a tree at all. It is a variety of Herb. Also, the fruit itself (Banana) is actually a Berry.

Garlic not only stops Vampires, it also stops Mosquitoes and Ticks.

On Dec. 17, 1997, an episode of "Pokemon" was aired on Japanese television that induced seizures in hundreds of people throughout the country of Japan. The ages of those affected ranged from 3 to 58 years old. Ironically, the TV news reports played the perpetrating scene excerpt of flashing red lights, causing even more people to be afflicted with epileptic-type symptoms, in case they had missed the first one.

Nepal is the only country in the world whose flag is not square or rectangular shaped.

The antibacterial components of antibacterial soaps (usually triclosan or, less commonly, triclocarbon) needs to be left on a surface for about two minutes in order to work. Most people are not this patient, and end up washing off the soap before the antibacterial ingredients can do their job.
