Up next...Moon Phases, Tides, and Eclipses!

How about some #HubbleTrivia? Think about this one:

How many times does Hubble orbit Earth in one day?

Watch the video in the thread to find out if your guess is correct.

A few people have been asking how the internet works, so Eileen Higgins has put together this very informative video. If you need anything further explained, let me or granny know and we’ll ask Eileen. Thanks, Daniel. #BallybegPO
