: The universe is estimated to be around 13.8 billion years old, which means it existed for 9.2 billion years before the Earth was even formed. Every single atom in your body was created in a star that exploded billions of years ago. The human brain is the most complex structure in the known universe, with over 100 billion neurons firing at all times. There are more possible iterations of a game of chess than there are atoms in the known universe. The tallest mountain in the solar system is Olympus Mons on Mars, which stands at a towering 22 kilometers (13.6 miles) tall. The speed of light is approximately 299,792,458 meters per second, or about 670,616,629 miles per hour. If the sun were the size of a beach ball, then Jupiter would be the size of a golf ball. Humans share 60% of their DNA with bananas. It takes approximately 8 minutes for sunlight to reach the Earth. There are more possible ways to shuffle a deck of cards than there are atoms on Earth. The surface area of Russia is larger than the surface area of Pluto. The largest living organism on Earth is a fungus called Armillaria ostoyae, which covers over 2,200 acres in Oregon.

The longest living creature on Earth is the ocean quahog clam, which can live for up to 500 years. The human nose can detect over 1 trillion different scents. There are more possible ways to play a game of chess than there are atoms in the observable universe. The sun is so big that you could fit over 1 million Earths inside of it. The Great Barrier Reef, the largest coral reef system in the world, is made up of over 2,900 individual reefs and 900 islands. Every time you shuffle a deck of cards, the resulting order has likely never existed before in the history of the universe. The human eye can distinguish between approximately 10 million different colors. The largest volcano on Earth, Mauna Loa in Hawaii, is taller than Mount Everest when measured from its base on the ocean floor. The most common element in the universe is hydrogen, which makes up about 75% of all matter. The total number of possible ways to order a deck of cards is so large that if every atom in the observable universe were a deck of cards, and you shuffled them every second, you would still not have gone through all possible permutations in the history of the universe. The human body contains enough fat to make seven bars of soap. The largest glacier in the world, the Lambert Glacier in Antarctica, is over 60 miles wide and 270 miles long. The universe is so big that there may be an infinite number of parallel universes, each with its own version of reality.
