Why? It's not called "Space Station".

Are you asking quizzers to differentiate between the only two space stations currently active, or are you asking quizzers to identify that the second largest orbiting object is a space station rather than a satellite or an asteroid or some other space object? Surely the point is to identify that it's a space station, not whether it is US or Chinese.

That's absolutely silly and you know it. You need to follow Jetpunk norms and allow for the commonly shortened "space station". And blizzrd makes a great point above me.

Seriously, there's nothing more annoying on this site then weird, overly-pedantic, power-tripping Quizmasters who refuse to give leeway on super obvious things like this. Get over yourself.

For the same reason that this quiz accepts "Hulk" for "The Incredible Hulk." Jetpunk convention is that short form answers that correctly identify the essence of the answer are counted. This avoids "syntax questing" and allows players to identify when they have a wrong answer so that they can move on or try alternatives. When "Space Station" was not counted, I assumed the answer was wrong and did not try variants -- because that's how the site usually works. This should be consistent across all questions.

The ISS is hardly "big". And the largest island that is not a continent or country would be more accurate as Australia

The Earth doesn't have too many large bodies orbiting it, surprisingly. You'd think that there was some big asteroid or something but the question still appears to be accurate. The debate between continent and island is still ambiguous and completely arbitrary, Jetpunk has established a policy considering Australia to be a continental landmass rather than an island.

It is larger in at least one measurement than Earth's second moon, Kamoʻoalewa. Bigger than a moon seems enough for me :)

I only ever know what a Googol is after the coughing cheating scandal on 'Who Wants To Be a Millionaire?' (UK) years ago. That was his £1M question.

Isn't the largest species of animals to ever live some kind of dinosaur? For example the barosaurus lentus (the largest one I could find), is on average 45-48m in body lenght, while the blue whale is only ~24m. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Largest_and_heaviest_animals

If you go by weight, there is also a heavier dinosaur species (Bruhathkayosaurus matleyi), and I don't know what else to measure "largest species of animal that has ever lived" in, other than lenght/size or weight, both of which the blue whale isn't the biggest in.

If you go by "largest living species of animal", blue whale of course would be correct, but not if the question is phrased like this.

The blue whale is typically reported as the heaviest, and is certainly the heaviest for which we have any good evidence.

A sauropod of similar length would be much, much lighter than a blue whale. It's mostly neck and tail.

But the weights and lengths of the largest sauropods are extremely speculative anyway, often based on just a few small bones.
