Mind Blowing Fact People Don’t know

1. There are more trees on Earth than stars in the Milky Way galaxy. Estimates suggest there are over 3 trillion trees on our planet.

2. The Great Wall of China is not visible from space with the naked eye. This is a common misconception. Astronauts have stated that it's difficult to see any specific human-made structures from space without the aid of telescopic lenses.

3. The total weight of all the ants on Earth is estimated to be equal to or greater than the weight of all humans on the planet. Ants are incredibly numerous and have a collective weight that is quite substantial.

4. The world's largest living organism is not a whale or an elephant but a honey fungus. Located in the Malheur National Forest in Oregon, USA, this fungus covers an area of about 2,385 acres (965 hectares).

5.Honey never spoils. Archaeologists have found pots of honey in ancient Egyptian tombs that are over 3,000 years old and still perfectly edible.

6.A strawberry is not a berry, but a banana is. Botanically speaking, strawberries are classified as "accessory fruits" because the edible part is not derived from the plant's ovaries. On the other hand, bananas are classified as berries.

7. The shortest war in history took place between Britain and Zanzibar in 1896. It lasted only 38 minutes.

8.The collective weight of all the ants on Earth is roughly equal to the weight of all the humans on the planet.

9.Humans share about 50% of their DNA with bananas. While we may not look or taste similar, there are genetic similarities between us and this popular fruit.

10. There are more possible iterations of a game of chess than there are atoms in the known universe. The number of possible moves and positions in chess is so vast that it exceeds the estimated number of atoms in the universe.

11. Remember, these facts may be surprising, but they are also subject to ongoing research and may be revised or refined over time.

12. Cleopatra lived closer to the time of the Moon landing than to the construction of the Great Pyramid of Giza. Cleopatra's lifetime was around 69-30 BCE, while the Great Pyramid was built around 2560-2540 BCE, making the time difference between Cleopatra and the Moon landing (1969 CE) smaller.

13. The average person walks the equivalent of three times around the world in their lifetime. Considering an average lifespan and an average walking distance, it's estimated that an individual can cover approximately 110,000 miles (177,000 kilometers) during their lifetime.

14. Oxford University is older than the Aztec Empire. The University of Oxford was established in the 12th century (around 1096), while the Aztec Empire emerged in the 14th century (around 1428).

15. The surface area of Russia is larger than the entire surface area of Pluto. Russia, as the largest country in the world, covers approximately 17.1 million square kilometers, while Pluto has a surface area of about 16.6 million square kilometers.

16. The total length of all the blood vessels in an adult human body is around 100,000 kilometers (62,000 miles). It's enough to wrap around the Earth more than twice.

17. The Mona Lisa has no eyebrows. Leonardo da Vinci's famous painting, the Mona Lisa, does not have visible eyebrows. It is believed that the eyebrows were lost due to aging, restoration efforts, or the style of the time.

18. The human brain is more active at night than during the day. While awake, the brain is continuously processing and transmitting information, but during sleep, it performs important functions such as memory consolidation and neural network maintenance.

19. The longest recorded flight of a chicken is 13 seconds. Although chickens are not known for their flying abilities, there have been instances of short-lived flights, with the longest documented one lasting a mere 13 seconds.

20. The Earth's core is hotter than the surface of the Sun. While the Sun's surface temperature is around 5,500 degrees Celsius (9,932 degrees Fahrenheit), the Earth's core temperature is estimated to be around 5,000 degrees Celsius (9,032 degrees Fahrenheit).

If you shuffle a deck of cards thoroughly, it is statistically likely that the exact order of cards in that deck has never existed before in the history of the universe. The number of possible card combinations is so immense that it is highly improbable for any two shuffled decks to be identical.
