      Uh… By my calculations, it’s ~34,000 miles. Enough to go all the way around the world about one and a half times.

        I may have failed most of my math classes. But if you think about it, perhaps the classes failed me?

        I mean, you could probably do that, but then once it gets hard, you’re gonna be catapulted halfway around the planet.
