Why doesn’t the Sun just float away into space? Here's what the science says | BBC Sky at Night Magazine Why doesn't the Sun float away into space or fall downwards? The answer is to do with the cosmic interplay of gravity, motion and inertia.

☀️🌌 We often think of the #Sun as the stationary center of our world, but it’s actually traveling at incredible speeds. It stays put because it’s locked in a galactic orbit, "falling" toward the center of the Milky Way while its own inertia keeps it moving in a circle. #space

Roman Statues Weren’t White; They Were Once Painted in Vivid, Bright Colors The idea of the classical period—the time of ancient Greece and Rome—as an elegantly unified collection of superior aesthetic and philosophical cultural traits has its own history, one that comes in large part from the era of the Neoclassical.

🎨🏛️ Did you know the "classic" white marble look of Roman statues was actually an accident? Ancient artists originally covered their work in bright, lifelike colors, but centuries of weathering and overzealous scrubbing took its toll. #history #rome
