Quintillion
There are 43 quintillion atoms in a single grain of sand.
That's a 43 followed by 18 zeroes.
In one grain. Of sand.
So when we set off a nuclear bomb.
Which is 150 lbs of uranium.
All the atoms in the uranium will burst open almost simultaneously,
Like a giganticΒ Β horde of little gas filled balloons.
A Billion times a billion of exploding firecrackers
That will create a 100 million degree fireball,
Which is five times hotter than the center of the sun,
That will blow through your neighborhood at 1000 kilometers per hour,
Leveling every man-made structure and vaporizing every living thing.
So size really doesn't manner.
Who we choose to lead us does.
