I used to think that when the crickets chirped at night, it was the stars making that noise because when I looked at the stars, they neemed to flicker and it corresponded with the chirping of the crickets...sometimes when I listen to the crickets now, I still get the image in my mind of the starts glowing and flickering.

there was this girl in my grade 12 history class who asked the question when the class got off topic, "Is the sun like a planet, like can you land on it" me and my friends laughed so hard.

Jason

Me and my friend used to believe that space was in God's belly

Lia

I used to believe, when I was like five, that space had a bottom. I thought that the north pole was the only safe place to live, because it was facing up. I had no idea of gravity.

As a kid we used to go on drives in the country. I noticed all these large things covered by tapolen mats. I asked what was under them. By brother told me they were u.f.o's under there. there was so many of them. Needless to say i was terrified of going in the country where all the aliens were ! (Later i found out it was haybales.)

Casey

When I was small I used to believe that the sun was like a big disc, with the sun on one side and the moon on the other.

When I was little I had a hard time holding on to my balloons, so they would always fly away. After a while I came to believe that there must be a planet full of my balloons that had gotten carried off into space, since i had lost so many.

I used to think the CareBears lived on the moon, and the blackish spots (actually craters) were where the CareALot cities were.

i used to believe that there was a light bulb in the moon and when i grew up, i wanted to be the person that had to change it.

When I was young, my sister told me the stars get in the sky when I'm not looking by shooting out of the flowers at night! One night, I actually sat on the patio watching the flowers in our yard, waiting for the stars to come out!

Scary Dream

I used to believe that if you counted all the stars in the sky, a shooting star would appear and place itself somewhere in my honour just because I had accomplished the task of counting every star in the sky.

Emilia Farrace

When I was little I used to think of the night sky as a BIG blanket and the moon and stars where holes in the blanket and if you looked real close through the holes they called stars you could see shadowy figures going by.

I learned in the first grade that the Sun was a star just like all the other stars, only it was MUCH bigger.

Geoff

When I was little and the news would talk about "illegal aliens" I thought they seriously meant aliens from outer space! I thought Omigod! Not only are they aliens but they are illegal!

Stevie

I used to believe that if you saw the first star of the night and said "Star light, star bright, first star I see tonight, I wish I may, I wish I might, have the wish I wish tonight" your wish would be granted. I thought you could trick it too, pretend that you only saw one star even if you'd seen more.

Lindsay

I use to believe that the Sun and the Moon were the same thing - with the Sun on one side and the Moon on the other.

Chris

I used to believe that the man on the moon was the Quaker Oats man!

Kristen

In childhood I used to belive that we, all human live inside the earth. There is giant hole on the top of the earth and we see the stars through that hole. I used to believe that all the Rockets to Moon had to pass through that hole to go to Moon.

Jabed

When my parents told me about the man on the moon I not only believed in him but actually thought I could see him and the craters I could see were what I reconned to be his face, They are a bit hazy and I sometimes thought I was getting him mad as it changed. I used to say mean things to the moon and decided I didn't like him.

I used to think that we lived in the center of the earth, and the blue sky was actually a protective covering with a light outside it so we could all see. Don't ask.
