    Take the Astronomy Test

    Following the Mechanical Knowledge Test.....try this one. More interesting to me anyway - and more difficult. 84%. Admittedly with about 5 calculated guesses though.

    They only asked ABOUT the universe. Not who created it from a thought bubble. In any case, everyone knows that was Stephen Hawking.

    OK, OK. How about a Science Literacy Test then ( it is from the Bible Thumpers again. ) ........ 76 - weakest links Physics and Maths. So no change there since 1971
