Speed of a bullet : 280 m/s (1000 km/hour, ~speed of jet) will take 40 hours to go around the earth
Sun 109x circumference of earth (half a year to go around the Sun)
AU - Astronomical Unit = 150,000,000 km away from the earth (take 17 years to get to the sun from the earth)

Heart Disease and Heart Attacks
Basics of heart disease, heart attacks, heart failure (heart cannot provide all the needs of the body), angina, cardiac arres (heart stopping)
Systemic Thinking About Cancer
Dr. David Agus discusses thinking systemically about cancer and other
From cancering to healthing
Elements and Atoms
How elements relate to atoms. The basics of how protons (define the element), electrons and neutrons
The number of Proton can't change (otherwise, you will have another element) but the number of Electron and Neutron can change in an element
