TED-Ed: How folding paper can get you to the moon - Adrian Paenza

The video tutorial explores the concept of exponential growth through the example of folding a very thin piece of paper multiple times. Starting with a paper 0.001 cm thick, the tutorial explains how each fold doubles the thickness, leading to significant growth. By the 25th fold, the paper's thickness is comparable to the height of the Empire State Building. The tutorial further illustrates that folding the paper 45 times would reach the moon, demonstrating the power of exponential growth.
