>two religion threads and an IQ thread

/sci/ is for SCIENCE (and math)

>A sky with two suns is a favourite image for science fiction films, but how would a binary star system affect life evolving on an orbiting planet? Jack O'Malley-James of the University of St Andrews has studied what plants might be like on an Earth-like planet with two or three suns and found that they may appear black or grey.

>NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter has discovered the total amount of atmosphere on Mars changes dramatically as the tilt of the planet's axis varies. This process can affect the stability of liquid water, if it exists on the Martian surface, and increase the frequency and severity of Martian dust storms.

LOL. And people still think Earth's climate changes are man-made.

Wolfram Alpha says mercury's average distance from earth is 1.04 AU. Since mean distance between the sun and the earh is 1 AU.

Does that mean that on average, the sun is closer to the earth then mercury?

:O

It's probably calculating how far Earth is from Mercury this particular moment. Orbit, etc.
