h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

before science, people had their own ideas as to what the sun was. for example;

.the ancient egyptians believe that the sun was their god ra riding across the sky in a boat.
.the ancient greeks believe it was their god apollo in a chariot.

I thought the Egyptians believed it was a giant dungball being pushed by a scarab...

Also, what's the hottest part of the sun? Page three. Although you need to be British to get that one.

I like that one...I hope that when this entry gets to be revised someday someone may've submitted something about sun legends...

nice

i was planning on doing that, but i didn't have enough information. i might do some more research now..

Hey, isn't that what the Guide is about? Think of something in light of "Hey, that'd make a neato entry for the Guide", make sure there's nothing else already on the subject, write it up, and put it out there...

I heard it was a giant dungball and scarab, too... but man, that's one big shiny ball of feces.
