The only fact that I didn't know before is the penultimate fact about the South Pole. Although I have an assumption that the South Pole is not so simple, and we don’t know much about this place...

You can still buy green oranges here, most get yellowish but not all. Its darn annoying when they place them next to lemons, as sometimes you mistake both.
This statistic is probably due to the fact that people work everyday but wars are very rare in comparison (same reason more people die in car accidents, etc).
And its no longer called a planet because of that
. Currently the correct number of planets in the Solar System is
8
, there are at least 3 "accepted" Dwarf planets.
Boomerang arrow? Interesting, citation needed...
The south pole and the north pole simply don't quite match the rest of the planet surface. It would be easier if it followed a single timezone, but each country putting a base insist of following their own, even tho it doesn't really make sense.

The Power of Love
