If you fold a sheet of paper 42 times it will be thick enough to reach the moon. And again the theoretical calculations. Every time you fold a sheet of paper, its thickness increasing two-fold. Assuming that the thickness of a sheet of office paper is equal to 0.1 millimeter, the first addition it will be 0,2 mm, 0,4 in the second, third 0.8, and so on. That is, if the sheet of paper it was possible to fold 42 times, the thickness of the resulting structure would be equal to almost 440 thousand kilometers. Then as the distance from the earth to the moon is 384 400 km.
I didn't believe a wordgood If anyone has the desire count.

Crank 7 more times and once two years to get to Mars :)

The limit of folding paper in half is a physical phenomenon, the essence of which is that a sheet of plain paper of size A4 can be folded in half no more than 7 times. It is due to the speed of growth of exponential function.

the Number of layers of paper equals two to the power n, where n is the number of folded paper. For example: if the paper is folded in half five times, the number of layers is two in of degree five, that is thirty-two.

Myth: Any sheet of paper cannot be folded in half more than 8 times. (Actually the current record is already 12 times, it belongs to Britney Gallivan).
Thickness of the middle sheet of paper is 1/10 of a millimeter. If you perfectly fold it in half, its thickness will double. But then things get really interesting.
the Third folding will give you the thickness of a human fingernail.
Seven folding – and you will get the thickness of a notebook of 128 pages.
10, and the thickness of the paper will be approximately the width of the palm.
the 23rd you will receive the paper stack height in kilometers.
30 folding will lead you into space. At this point, your piece will have a height of 100 kilometres.
Continue to fold. 42 folding will bring you to the moon. 51 – and you'll be in the Sun.
Now quickly scroll to the 81st fold and get a stack of paper thick 127.786 light years is almost equal to the diameter of the Andromeda Nebula (which is about 141.000 light years).
90 folding will give 130.8 million light years is more than Supercluster Virgo, which has a diameter of approximately 110 million years. Supercluster virgin contains the local galactic group, which includes Andromeda, our own milky Way, and about a hundred other galaxies.
And finally, at 103 folding you will go beyond the observable Universe, the diameter of which is estimated at 93 billion light-years.
Math is awesome. As well as our universe.

anikina, I will not argue, information in Wikipedia took itself did not check :)

Yes, I've been know to fold a sheet of paper in half a limited amount of time. And that in itself is amazing
