[00:00:00]What if I told you that the universe laughs at our maps? A single light-year, just one, is about 6 trillion miles.

[00:00:06]That's a six with 12 zeros behind it.

[00:00:09]Light, [music] the fastest thing in existence, traveling at 186,000 miles per second, still [music] takes an entire year to cover that distance. To put that in perspective, if you drove a car at highway speed, non-stop, no bathroom breaks, no sleep, it would take you over 10 million years to travel just one light-year.

[00:00:29]And the nearest star to Earth is over four light-years away.

[00:00:33]The universe is not big, it is incomprehensibly [music] big. If that just broke your brain a little, type mind-blown in the comments and follow for more facts [music] that make you feel tiny in the best way possible.
