First Steemit Challenge of General Culture for all
During my childhood days, my father used to simulate a Superior Intelligence contest, as he called it. It consisted in playing with us to ask us many questions of general culture and would winn whoever answered correctly the most questions. For us it was a very funny challenge because we enjoyed it a lot cause it was one of those few moments when making mistakes did not become a scolding and my father congratulated us with a thunderous YEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSS.
My dear Steemian, I challenge you to answer more than 15 questions correctly. If you get it, you can consider yourself very cultured. I invite you to share these questions with your children, family and friends.
And do not forget to congratulate them with a thunderous YEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSS which will make the Challenge more fun.

And the latter, for now, is not very easy because although you peek out your window, even if you go out on your balcony or stand in the middle of the street on a starry night to look at the stars and see the brightest star in the sky , you will not be able to answer correctly, if you do not know it because the stars themselves do not know what name the astrologers have given to them. So better to see the stars, I recommend you to consult an astrologer, my Steeman friend. - What is the brightest star seen from the earth?

Sirius,
