Post DNA Illumination: Our Genetic Lifeline
I found these great facts about the size of our DNA.
As it is above, so it is below, as it is within, so it is without.....

The IMMENSITY OF THE HUMAN GENOME:
The Centre for Integrated Genomics says: "If the length of the 100 trillion cells (each with 46 chromosomes) could be stretched out, it would be over 113,000,000,000 miles in length! (Yes, that's 113 billion miles)

A 113 Billion miles! The distance from Earth to Mars is only 35 Million miles; from Earth to Saturn is 746 Million miles; Earth to Uranus is 1.6 Billion miles; from Earth to Neptune is 2.68 Billion miles; from Earth To Pluto is 4.5 Billion miles......

So, our DNA would stretch out past Pluto another 108.5 billion miles to cover the distance of our human genome when laid out end to end!

Using our genetic lifeline we could easily reach out far past the limits of our Solar System or maybe, the vast inner reaches and unexplored realms within.

What a meditation that could be....
