30+ Mind-Bending Facts About Space That'll Give You the Cosmic Chills

You know what I find so freaky about space? Just the fact that we don't know a whole lot about it. It gives me major chills. It's like the ocean, but on a whole other level of spooky, purely based on its infinite size. Scrolling through this thread I found on r/askreddit made me realize I'm basically clueless about the deep secrets of space. Did you know there's a black hole that's a mind-blowing 367 billion miles long? Wrap your head around that one!

Getting into space stuff really hammers home how tiny we are on this little Earth of ours. Have you ever wondered what the sun would sound like if we could hear it? Apparently, if we could hear it, it'd totally throw off the course of evolution. And don't even get me started on gamma-ray bursts. But if you're curious for more, keep scrolling to check out some out-of-this-world facts from the Reddit space crew below.
