A small topic for little known facts. Feel free to be random about it, but do keep the thread informative, that's why this isn't in off-topic discussion.
Did you know that atoms are 99%? space? If the nucleus of an atom was the size of a baseball, the electrons would be "orbiting" a baseball stadiums length away. This means than Mt. Everest could be squeezed inside a pint sized jar.
It's actually far less than 99%.
I'm conserving estimates for the sake of expediency. I could crunch numbers and post links to sources but that wouldn't be very much fun for most of the people here. That said a cursory glance on a quick google trip says differently, I'm consistently getting multiple possibly unreliable sources saying it's 99% or more. Could you fill us in with a more correct amount and better sources for the sake of science?
Did you know that cow milk doesn't help build strong bones in humans?
