I do a daily exercise of looking for types of facts and today’s fact finding mission seemed shady (lol).

These are weird, yet interesting facts I found today:

1) Venus is the only planet to spin clockwise.

2) The Eiffel Tower was originally made for Barcelona.

3) The quickest commercial flight is in Scotland.

4) Cleopatra was born in Egypt but was of Macedonian descent.

5) The International Space Station orbits the earth in 90 minutes.

I’d hang a big question mark on that particular assertion because most all of us know that being a passenger on an airplane can spiral upwards of over 8 hrs in flight mode before stopping to drop off passengers or to refuel the airplane. Unless this particular fact about the ISS discloses its longitude and latitude coordinates and other factual info explaining how ISS orbits the earth in 90 minutes is logically explained, then I rest my case in Spock-like fashion.
