If each book had a mass of 100 grams, all of them would have a total mass of 10 93 kilograms. In comparison, Earth's mass is 5.97 × 10 24 kilograms [5], the mass of the Milky Way galaxy is estimated at 1.8 × 10 42 kilograms [6], and the total mass of all the stars in the observable universe is estimated at 2 × 10 52 kg.

To put in perspective the size of a googol, the mass of an electron, just under 10-30 kg, can be compared to the mass of the visible universe, estimated at between 10 50 and 10 60 kg. [5] It is a ratio in the order of about 10 80 to 10 90 , or at most one ten-billionth of a googol (0.00000001% of a googol).
After "nine", one can head straight back into the 10, 11, 12, etc., although some write out the numbers until "twelve". Example: "I have 28 grapes." (Preferred) Example: "I have twenty-eight grapes."

I was asked by an editor "why spell out "fifty" and not "five hundred and sixty-two" and responded that it was formal English practice because it was ...
Visualisation of powers of 10 from one to 1 trillion. In mathematics, a power of 10 is any of the integer powers of the number ten; in other words, ten multiplied by itself a certain number of times (when the power is a positive integer). By definition, the number one is a power (the zeroth power) of ten. The first few non-negative powers of ...
Myria-(and myrio-) [15] [16] [17] is an obsolete metric prefix that denoted a factor of 10 +4, ten thousand, or 10,000. 10,000 hertz, 10 kilohertz, or 10 kHz of the radio frequency spectrum falls in the very low frequency or VLF band and has a wavelength of 30 kilometres. In orders of magnitude (speed), the speed of a fast neutron is 10000 km/s.
