| Facts: |
| In the 32 years since the original 'Galaxy Song' from "Monty Python's Meaning of Life" (Universal, 1983), the science we know about the galaxy has changed somewhat, so some of the measurements in this song had to be corrected for the 2015 version. (Stavro Arrgolus) |

| Song Lyrics: |
Whenever life gets you down, Mrs. Brown
and things seem hard or tough
and people are stupid, obnoxious or daft
and you feel that you've had quite enough....
Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving
And revolving at 900 miles an hour,
That's orbiting at 19 miles a second, so it's reckoned
A sun that is the source of all our power
The sun and you and me and all the stars that we can see,
Are moving at a million miles a day
In an outer spiral arm at 400,000 miles an hour
In the galaxy we call the Milky Way
Our galaxy itself contains 500 billion stars
It's 100,000 light years side to side
It bulges in the middle, 6,000 light years thick
But out by us it's just 1,000 light years wide
We're 30,000 light years from galactic central point
We go round every 200 million years
And our galaxy is only one of millions of billions
In this amazing and expanding universe
The universe itself, keeps on expanding and expanding
In all of the directions it can whiz
As fast as it can go, at the speed of light you know
12 million miles a minute and that's the fastest speed there is
So remember when you're feeling very small and insecure
How amazingly unlikely is your birth
And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space,
'Cause there's bugger all down here on Earth (Stavro Arrgolus) |
