Ok I am often told that what to me is common knowledge, especially in astronomy, is not. So I thought I'd devise a little quiz to test the water. Have a go without googling or reading the other answers first.
1) What are the 8 planets in order going out from the sun?
2) What is the largest planet on our solar system?
3) What star is the brightest in our sky and how is it found in the sky?
4) What is the hottest planet in our solar system?
5) How far away is the closest star system to ours?
6) What is the star over the north pole and how is it found in the sky?
7) What is the crab nebula the remnants of?
8) What lies in the orbital space between Mars and Jupiter?
9) What are the 4 Galilean moons of Jupiter
10) What is a pulsar?

Not sure, obviously of one or two, but then I am interested in astronomy, and I don't think a class doing GCSE astronomy is really a representative group for common knowledge.
