@akiselv: Some of the questions my daughter has asked:

> how does an earthquake happen > when was the first Christchurch earthquake > what are the well known constellations > how big is cat VY Canis Majoris > what is the biggest star > how old is Pluto > what is Fusion > how was the sun formed

This is from one session.

And your daughter is only 8? Damn, nice job on the parenting. Might I ask what you've done as a parent to help get her to the point where she's asking these sorts of questions?

[rvijapurapu]

Early on I did show her how to use the Google Now to ask questions - like how far is the Moon & like. That's about all the parenting I have done in this regard. She has been watching way too many How Stuff Works videos lately - I want to see if that spills over into her being more curious about things.

Very cool. Have you by any chance considered the Amazon Echo or teaching her how to use Wolfram Alpha?

[rvijapurapu]

I don't own the Echo, might be something I would consider buying at some point.

I do have access to WolframAlpha but haven't yet taught her how to use it - maybe it's a bit early for her, I'll give it a go.

parenting done right, I'm envious now :D

keep up the good work
