The Sears Tower -- 2.6 Trillion Pennies
 2,623,684,608,000
Two trillion, six hundred twenty-three billion, six
hundred eighty-four million six hundred and eight
thousand Pennies
Chicago's Sears Tower occupies 53.4 million cubic feet of space. Using
our cubic foot of pennies (49,152 total), it's once again just another
multiplication problem - 53,379,000 x 49,152 = 2,623,684,608,000 pennies.
Okay, enough with the buildings, let's take a giant leap forward. What would
a cube of one quadrillion pennies look like?
