How many pennies would it take to reach the sun?

Answer 1

Lined up edge to edge, or stacked as in a roll?

There are about 20 pennies in an inch. Since the sun is roughly 93 million miles away, and there are 5280 feet in a mile, and 12 inches per foot, the product of all these numbers is: 117,849,600,000,000. 118 trillion pennies. 1.2 trillion dollars, or, pretty close to what the US will have spent by the conclusion of the unprovoked Iraq War.
