Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Anne Draw Meter
Answer: Andromeda
Andromeda, at a distance of 2.5 million light-years, is the closest galaxy to our own Milky Way. In approximately 4.5 billion years, Andromeda is expected to collide with the Milky Way. It can be found within its namesake, the Andromeda constellation.
2. Purr Ramen Ants
Answer: prominence
A prominence is a discharge of hot gases from the surface of the sun. Solar prominences can be larger than all of the planets in the solar system, including Jupiter. Sometimes material from the prominence becomes a coronal mass ejection and the ionized particles can cause communication disruption on the Earth.
3. Proxy Ma Sent Awry
Answer: Proxima Centauri
Proxima Centauri is the Sun's nearest stellar neighbor. It is approximately 4.2 light-years away. It is speculated that Proxima Centauri may be gravitationally linked to the binary stars of Alpha Centauri, but this has yet to be proven. It is an M-class red dwarf star with at least one planet orbiting it.
4. Gay Knee Meat
Answer: Ganymede
Ganymede is the largest moon in the solar system. It is one of the four Galilean Moons of the planet Jupiter. It has a diameter of approximately 3,200 miles. Much like its neighbor Europa, Ganymede is speculated to have an ocean of liquid water under its surface.
5. Con Stall Late Shun

7. Murk Yuri
Answer: Mercury
Mercury is the closest planet in our solar system to the sun. It orbits the sun in only 88 days. However, Mercury turns slowly on its axis, with one day on Mercury lasting 59 days on Earth. Mercury is larger than the Earth's moon, but smaller than Titan, the largest moon of Saturn.
8. Sink You Larry Tea
Answer: singularity
A singularity lies at the center of a black hole. A black hole is formed when a supergiant star goes supernova. Nothing, including light can escape the intense gravity of a black hole. It is speculated that a super massive black hole lies in the center of the Milky Way galaxy.
9. Poll Czar
Answer: pulsar
A pulsar is a neutron star that spins at a rapid pace. The rapid flashes of light are radiation that is expelled by the pulsar. Pulsars are the remains of a giant star that has gone supernova (though not big enough to form a black hole). The matter of a pulsar is so densely compacted that you would not be able to lift it up if you scooped out even a spoonful of material.
10. Soul Assist Them
Answer: Solar System
The solar system is the home of the Earth, the sun and the moon. The sun formed approximately 4.6 billion years ago. The matter that was left over cooled and compressed forming the planets and their satellites. Even now, humanity is discovering new worlds within this solar system. We are also learning new truths about the worlds within the solar system that we do know.
