Trivia Five #79 in brief
- The five questions, easiest first: 1. Which planet is known as the Red Planet? 2. Which two brothers made the first sustained powered aeroplane flight in 1903? 3. Who wrote "One Hundred Years of Solitude"? 4. Which sport uses the terms "birdie" and "eagle"? 5. Which country is completely surrounded by South Africa?
- Five questions, ordered gently upward: today opens on space and closes on geography.
- 20 options across the five, so 15 of them are wrong and a blind guess lands about a quarter of the time.
