How big is Maip?
10 meter!
A genus of large theropod dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous (approximately 70 million years ago) discovered in modern-day Patagonia. Named Maip macrothorax, it was a member of the megaraptorid family and measured around 33 feet (10 meters) long, and 11.4 feet (3.5 meters) wide. Maip was a fast predator, with large claws on its hands, slender legs, and a probable covering of protofeathers.
Apollo Lunar Module
This thing weighs 15,000 kilograms! That's a lot! It also landed on the Moon. Its landing inspired the arcade game "Lunar Lander” which is not easy. When I play, I always run out of fuel!
Tyrannosaurus Rex
This dinosaur is now extinct, but it used to be up to 7 meters long. Although the T-Rex was very large, it was not the largest! Zoom out a bit to see the largest dinosaur!
Saguaro Cactus
Not all Saguaro cacti grow to be 14 meters tall, unfortunately. Some may only be a measly five meters tall. Some are armless - those are called spears. It takes saguaro cacti 75 years to fully grow an arm, while it takes humans less than 20.
Tyrannosaurus
One of the most famous and fearsome dinosaurs, T. rex lived during the Late Cretaceous (around 68–66 million years ago). As an apex predator, it measured up to 40 feet (12 meters) in length, stood about 13–15 feet (4–5 meters) tall at the hips, and weighed between 9–14 tons. It had powerful jaws lined with teeth capable of crushing bone, a robust skull, and tiny but functional arms. Its diet included large prey like hadrosaurs and ceratopsians.
Oak Tree
The oak tree is a tree. They can live a very long time, longer than even a human can! Oak trees produce thousands of acorns a year. Acorns are good. Almost as good as ice cubes.
Average U.S. House
These houses of the United States have been getting larger. In the last 40 years, the average house has almost doubled in area! They are so large that you could fit 1,000 people in them! It would be pretty cramped, though.
