Every Planet Fits Between Earth and the Moon (Most People Don't Know This)

[00:00:00]Every planet in our solar system can fit between Earth and the moon at the same time. Line them up, Jupiter, Saturn, all of them, and you still got room left over. That gap is about 384,000 km wide. And most people picture the moon floating right next to us, like a neighbor across the street. Nah, it is more like your neighbor lives in a completely different zip code. Imagine driving a car at highway speed non-stop.

[00:00:29]You would need about 5 and 1/2 months to reach the moon. 5 months of driving without sleeping. Now, here is where it gets spicy. Space agencies are planning moon bases within the next decade. And if you do not understand the actual scale of space, you will never grasp why that engineering challenge is absolutely unhinged. Grab any two objects right now. Put them far apart and feel how wild that distance really is. Save this before you forget it.
