It was thought in school somewhere grades 1st and 3rd grade. 1st grade was 6 years old, so is school between 6 and 8 ages old is where it was tough. But I think my dad told me about starts and space before that.

Why did you start school in your 50s?

About the same age for me. My dad taught me about the solar system and atmospheres before grade school. He was really interested in that and so was I.

I found out when I was around 4 or 5. I don't remember exactly when, though.
