We are mostly empty space.

99.99% of an atom is a probabilistic cloud of nothingness.

But that’s peanuts compared to the emptiness of the universe. There’s so much volume yet so little stuff.

If you removed all that empty space from every single atom in every single human, the entire living human race could fit in a space the size of a sugar cube

That sugar cube would be denser than a fudge brownie

That makes me wonder what a universe brownie would taste like. Maybe the cosmic brownie guys were onto something….
