I'm curious. What's an astronomy fact we didn't know until the seventies that's in the Bible?
Well first of all until the invention of the Rocket in the 20th Century we didn't know that the earth hangs in outer space. But it's in the Bible that it hangs on nothing:
Job 26:7 He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.
The earth is round:
It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in:
Now, as to the one that we didn't know until the 1970s it's this one:
Job 38:31 Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion?
In the night sky and with technology prior to 1970, we have discovered that the stars of Pleiades are held together by gravity and the stars of Orion are not because they are so far away from each other, hence the drifting away from each other. Here is an article on it:
