Planets, moons, comets, stars, meteors - known to the ancients, these are just a handful of concepts that explain most of what we can see with the naked eye in the night sky. Most people should be taught these concepts in grade school. Less visible things like asteroids and galaxies are still explainable to a grade school child in about 5 minutes. I'm very curious how you weren't taught about comets.

Quasars and neutron stars and black holes, on the other hand, are things I can understand a lot of people not understanding.
