"Nguyen Tri Hieu, 48, from HCM City has donated blood 71 times. However, he has set a goal of donating blood up to 100 times or until his health no longer allows him to.

“My mother died due to lack of blood for a transfusion when I was 20 years old. My family got together in an effort to donate blood to help her. We even bought blood from other donors, but it was not enough,” he recalled.

“I wasn't just my mother at that time, many patients were in desperate need of blood transfusions but the resources simply weren't there and they had to leave this world before their time.” said Hieu.

A few years after his mother passed away, Hieu decided to register to donate blood. Since the first time in 1997, Hieu has donated blood for 71 times, offering up the life-giving resource once every three months.

“There have been many times when I've donated blood to people in need of urgent transfusions. Once, when I was working, my friend at the blood bank called me to help a child at the Heart Institute. My boss immediately told me to go to the hospital.”

“I remembered all the times I've donated blood like that because if did not hurry, the patient’s life would be at risk," he said.

Hieu is also a registered organ donor. "I feel like I can give something, I don't need to keep it," he said. "I feel like I can give away anything, I should not keep it, how can I do it when someone might need it.”

Hieu was one of 100 donors who were honoured at a ceremony on Thursday for their contributions to the country’s voluntary blood donation movement in 2019."

Mercury is the smallest member of the sun’s family. It is only 3.100 miles across. It is also the sun’s swiftest planet. Its yearly journey around the sun is only 85 days. Mercury always keeps one side towards the sun. On this side, it is always day, on the other side night. We only see the lighted side. Mercury appears to us like a yellowish-orange star. The nearest planet to the sun is always seen near the sun, either just before sunrise or soon after sunset. People sometimes call Mercury the morning star or evening star.

Mercury is half the size of the earth. Because it is much lighter, it has much less gravity. If you can visit Mercury in a spaceship, you will find it a strange world. Its low gravity makes you feel very light. If your weight on earth is 100 pounds, your weight on Mercury is only 27 pounds. Looking at the sun from Mercury, you can see that it’s much more brilliant than it is seen from the earth. And the yellow center of the sun appears three times bigger than Mercury. On its lighted side, Mercury’s temperature is about 300 degrees centigrade. But the dark side is extremely cold, but 150 degrees below zero so mercury is probably the coldest as well as the hottest of the planets.

Why do we weigh much on the earth than on Mercury? – Because_______.
