      One cell contains 2 meters of follded dna 1

      A human has 36 trillion cells 2

      The distance between Earth and Jupiter varies from 588 million km to 999 million km and averages at 601 million kilometers 3

      36 trillion * 2 meters / 0,6 trillion meters

      120 times to Jupiter (or 60 times back an forth) on average

      Or 72 times to Jupiter (36 times back and forth) at the highest distance

      Now look here… Is not meant to be actually thought about, just be impressed dammit!

      Surely it’s DNA from all cells??
