Totally taken aback by such basic lack of knowledge, I shouted that question out to a few buddies.
NONE of them knew the right answer. I was shocked.
And incidentally Justin, Eddie (McGuire) mentioned the name of our galaxy as being the Milky Way, and the 4th selection wasn't 'a supernova', it was 'nougat' (being in the centre of a bar of 'galaxy' chocolate bar I suppose!).
But yeah, everyone I asked was struggling between the Earth and the Moon and essentially had no idea.
I very quickly decided not to ask anyone else because they looked at me like I was some sort of smartass or something - knowing (a little) about this space stuff!
Duh..
