String[] facts = { "Ants stretch when they wake up in the morning.", "Ostriches can run faster than horses.", "Olympic gold medals are actually made mostly of silver.", "You are born with 300 bones; by the time you are an adult you will have 206.", "It takes about 8 minutes for light from the Sun to reach Earth.", "Some bamboo plants can grow almost a meter in just one day.", "The state of Florida is bigger than England.", "Some penguins can leap 2-3 meters out of the water.", "On average, it takes 66 days to form a new habit.", "Mammoths still walked the earth when the Great Pyramid was being built.", "Treehouse is not actually in a tree."}; };

Second thing: your code is not well formated for this forum, thus not well readable Do you mabe have a curly brace too much after ```String[] facts = {...}
?
