:shock: And remember when it was around 14 Trillion singles that would at least reach pluto and fill up god knows how many football fields? So now that we are up to 18 trillion, how far into space will that reach? will it exit the milky way and onto the planets that have alien life? If anyone can do the math/calculations, please let us know how far 18 Trillion Singles will reach. Who knows, it might just reach the Starship Enterprise.:woohoo:
 
How many USMB members would like the US to spend whatever it takes to actually make it happen...
In the name of science of course...

A dollar is 6.14" long so 18 trillion of them end to end would reach 1,744,318,181.82 miles. For some scale, Uranus is 1,783,950,000 miles from the sun.

It won't get very far. Also consider inflation because it won't happen anytime soon.

We need to send 4 small city size spaceship in 4 directions and we need to go faster so the nearest planet can be reached in 40 years give or take. But to live forever we need to stay in space because even those other planets will eventually die too.

Right now we can get to the nearest star in 70,000 years.

Oh and we will never see those ships again. Talk about zero roi. Lol. But if we want to live forever we must do this. Its what we were made to do.

gee, i wonder how long it would take a human to count 18 Trillion in hundreds?

Its all funny money anyways. Think about all the profits that will be made and the jobs created and the taxes that will be paid. Don't worry corporations will get their share.

Or get $18T from an ugly teller in twenties?
