[00:00:00]Hold up. A country is actually wider than the moon?

[00:00:03]Yeah, it sounds completely fake because the moon looks massive in the sky, right? But here's the wild truth.

[00:00:09]Australia stretches about 4,000 km across, while the moon's diameter is only 3,474 km.

[00:00:18]So why does the moon look bigger?

[00:00:20]Because it's way closer to us, about [music] 384,000 km away, making it appear huge in the sky.

[00:00:27]Meanwhile, Australia is right here on Earth and we just don't notice how insanely wide it really is.

[00:00:33]Imagine dragging Australia across the moon like a sticker.

[00:00:37]It would actually stick out past the [music] edges. And get this, Australia isn't even the biggest landmass on Earth, which means there are even larger things here that make the moon look small in comparison.
