Astronomy: The Quiz

Q10 Light speed is a limiting velocity: NOTHING known to our science moves faster than light!

Number 10, the answer is wrong! The correct answer is nothing!

I got 10/10. My maternal grandfather, who was born in London in 1862 and came to NZ about 1880, was a pioneer NZ astronomer, who developed his interest during the 1890s. He died in January 1927. My Mum was just 15. She got me interested when I was very young, maybe just before I started secondary school. It has always been one of my chief interests along with classical music (I sing and write poetry, three of my poems being about astronomical matters, but they are mostly about wildlife conservation and environmental issues generally. Grandfather also made his own telescopes.

"Dummy" - with three correct answers, boohoo!.😂 I know how to say dummy in several languages though, does that count, lol? 😊

Who cares about the results!!!

Ouch ! That stings. Only 5.

Nothing faster than Light !!! Ask Einstein!!

9/10..same idea, nothing faster than light??😯

4/10 which proves I'm not an astronomer!

leox, That's what I thought.

5/10. The galaxy question is off.

9/10 I didn't think that anything that we know to exist was faster than the speed of light. I've been wrong before but I'm going to look this answer up just out of curiosity.

toshinsita, It was more challenging than a lot of tests on here.

Galaxies can move faster than light? I'm no expert, but I don't think so.

According to Einstein's theory of special relativity, nothing moves faster than light. This has been proven experimentally.
