How big would the Earth by relative to the size of the internet?
If the internet was the universe, and the earth was measured in bytes, how many bytes would the earth be relative to the size of the universe?
- ubudesign 19y agonot even one byte. of course you can not have anyting smaller then a btye. so the internet is not as big as it shound be.
- dbrush 19y agoHere is the factor for Earth vs. Universe By approximate age: 3.017 By approximate diameter, using the distance light travels over the approximate age of the universe compared to the known diameter of earth: 10,172,030,097,215,335,227.548 By approximate amount of energy would probably be more telling; it's telling me I need bignums. Edit: I found this page http://www2.sims.berkeley.edu/research/projects/how-much-info-2003/internet.htm http://www2.sims.berkeley.edu/research/projects/how-much-inf... It's from 2002 so it's dated but, taking the diameter factor from above the earth would be 0.05 bytes, or, less than half a bit... in 2002. I quit math.
- dfischer 19y agoWell, you'd have to estimate how large the internet is, not how large the "Universe" is. How much storage is on servers, etc? Could even go as far as saying private networks are black matter :)
