- Retric 9y agoRather than just stating random numbers: DNA in a cell is ~2 meters long (rolled up it's 6 microns across) http://www.sciencefocus.com/qa/how-long-your-dna http://www.sciencefocus.com/qa/how-long-your-dna * ~40 trillion cells (https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/there-are-372-trillion-cells-in-your-body-4941473/ https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/there-are-372-tril...) ~= 8e13 meters ~= 5 * 10 ^ 10 miles or ~50 billion miles.
