Always time for one of my favorite fun facts:
The moon is so far away from the earth that all the planets in the solar system could fit between the earth and the moon.
I mean, not for long, but it would be worth it.
Hold on a second. You can fit Jupiter and Uranus in there?
WTF?! I have to check this.
Ok shortest distance earth moon surface: 340 000 km.
Earth: 12 800 km
Damn I even can fit an another earth in there and it is still plenty of space
Saturn?
Is 116 500 km, so we're missing the mark with a little more than 43 000 km.
Well 340 is the shortest distance of the orbit
True! But that was also what you used ๐ I looked up the average distance though, which seems to be 385 000 km. Which means we would fit everyone with about 2 000 km to spare ๐
The interesting part is that it would be kind of a close fit, astronomically speaking
