almost every space theme movie or tv show is wrong about noise.

the entire ship could explode and there's no sound... the moon could split in half and no sound.

Any close by supernova would blow most people's minds away

The idea that space is a cold void, so spaceships would be cold is wrong. Spaceships should have a massive problem with overheating, as in deep space, there's virtually nothing to transfer the heat to, so it can't be pissed away.

Our solar system isn't stationary, it's traveling around the Milky Way at 200 kilometers per second, or 490,000 miles per hour. Even at this rapid speed, the solar system would take about 230 million years to travel all the way around the Milky Way. The Milky Way, too, moves in space relative to other galaxies.

The largest known black hole has more mass than some galaxies and its event horizon is 100 times larger than the distance between the sun and pluto.

As far as our understanding currently allows us to calculate this, the centre of a black hole is the coldest place in the universe.
