0:00:11 > 0:00:13So, get ready for more fun

0:00:13 > 0:00:15from the Let's Go Club.

0:00:19 > 0:00:23Today, we're finding out all about space.

0:00:36 > 0:00:38blast off, go!

0:00:38 > 0:00:40Let's get to those facts.

0:00:41 > 0:00:42First up,

0:00:42 > 0:00:44astronauts cannot cry.

0:00:44 > 0:00:46Sad, but true.

0:00:46 > 0:00:50In space, there's no gravity to pull things down

0:00:50 > 0:00:53and that means that tears don't fall or flow -

0:00:53 > 0:00:55instead, they float

0:00:55 > 0:00:57like watery bubbles...

0:00:57 > 0:00:59or cling on to your face

0:00:59 > 0:01:02until little puddles form under your eyes.

0:01:02 > 0:01:05Has anyone got a tissue?

0:01:05 > 0:01:07Next, the footprints that astronauts

0:01:07 > 0:01:11left behind on the Moon will be there for ever

0:01:11 > 0:01:14and it isn't because they didn't wipe their feet.

0:01:14 > 0:01:16The Moon has no atmosphere

0:01:16 > 0:01:19and that means it doesn't have any weather, either.

0:01:19 > 0:01:21So, there's no wind or rain

0:01:21 > 0:01:24to blow and wash away the tracks.

0:01:24 > 0:01:28Next time, I'd suggest taking a brush.

0:01:28 > 0:01:32Next, space is full of rubbish

0:01:32 > 0:01:35and it's mostly because of us.

0:01:35 > 0:01:38Ever since we started exploring space,

0:01:38 > 0:01:40- we've been leaving things behind. - One!

0:01:40 > 0:01:42Bits of old rocket,

0:01:42 > 0:01:43an astronaut's glove,

0:01:43 > 0:01:45a camera,

0:01:45 > 0:01:46tools

0:01:46 > 0:01:47and a toothbrush.

0:01:47 > 0:01:50They're all floating around up there somewhere.

0:01:50 > 0:01:53Maybe the next mission to blast off

0:01:53 > 0:01:56should take some bin bags and do some tidying up.

0:01:56 > 0:01:57And finally,

0:01:57 > 0:02:01there are no green stars in space.

0:02:01 > 0:02:04The colour of a star depends on how hot it is

0:02:04 > 0:02:07with all that gas burning inside.

0:02:07 > 0:02:09Red stars are the coldest,

0:02:09 > 0:02:12blue stars are the hottest

0:02:12 > 0:02:14and the star you know very well,

0:02:14 > 0:02:16the Sun, is yellow

0:02:16 > 0:02:19with a temperature that's somewhere in the middle.

0:02:19 > 0:02:23Just the right amount of heat to keep us toasty warm.

0:02:23 > 0:02:25Fact.

0:02:26 > 0:02:29You can be part of the Let's Go Club, too.

0:02:29 > 0:02:32Grab a grown-up and head to the CBeebies website.

0:02:32 > 0:02:36Remember, we're the club that never closes.
