That's the equivalent of over 1,000 empire state buildings all in a tiny cube. Through some brief estimation, assuming an average human weight of 100 lbs, considering that there are kids who weigh less and adults who weigh more, and the fact that there are 7.6 billion of us, we are left with a total weight of 760 billion pounds. This means that that sugar cube would weigh the same as the sum total of every human on earth. While the entire human race might be able to be condensed into the volume of a sugar cube, our weight would stay the same here on earth. This sounds absurd, it sounds inconceivable, but it becomes much more believable when you consider how much the sugar cube of people would weigh. If you were to remove all of the empty space contained in every atom in every person on planet earth and compress us all together, then the overall volume of our particles would be smaller than a sugar cube. When you start to consider that atoms are about 99% empty space and they make up 100% of the universe, you can start to see: you're made up of nothingness.Įvery human on planet Earth is made up of millions and millions of atoms which all are 99% empty space. As a general rule of thumb, nuclei are about 100,000 times smaller than the atoms that they are housed in, making them practically empty space. Around the edges of that stadium exist the electrons, the numbers of which vary by different elements. If the nucleus of the average atom was the size of a peanut, then the entire atom would be about the size of a baseball stadium.
RELATED: IT'S POSSIBLE TO BORROW ENERGY FROM EMPTY SPACEĮvery atom has a nucleus surrounded by electrons. Atoms make up everything, but they also exist very, very far apart – and atoms themselves are more void than they are matter. Everything around us is made up of matter, even further, everything around us is matter made up of atoms. Understanding the makeup of objectsĪnything that has a mass and occupies a given amount of volume is rudimentarily defined as matter.
This absurd truth has everything to do with atoms. What we perceive as solid objects like desks, chairs, cars, even ourselves, is actually just a big conglomeration of tiny particles separated by what is practically infinite nothingness. The entire human race, every single person, could all be compressed into a solid cube with the equivalent size of a sugar cube – all because we are made up of nothingness. In fact, everyone currently on earth, all 7.6 billion of us, we could all fit into the room you're in right now. While that may sound grim, it's the truth. Everyone in the world is made up of nothingness.
