Archimedes then concluded that the diameter of the Universe was no more than 1014 stadia (in modern units, about 2 light years), and that it would require no more than 1063 grains of sand to fill it.
Atunci Arhimede a calculat diametrul universului ca fiind nu mai mare de 1014 stadii (în unități moderne ~2 ani lumină), deci pentru a-l umple sunt necesare 1063 fire de nisip.
