Etymology
The word trillion was created in the 1680s, borrowed from French trillion and Italian trilione, which is from tri- ("three") + million ("a thousand thousands"). Originally in British English, the word "trillion" referred to million million millions (while "billion" referred to million millions, which is equal to trillion in American English); however, to many people, the word refers to one thousand billion (1,000,000,000,000) in the present day.[2]
Trillion is often abbreviated as T, t, or tn. Rarer forms include tril, trill, tln, and trn.[3][4]
Properties

Scientific usage
For physical quantities, the metric prefix tera- (symbol T) indicates 1,000,000,000,000 times the base unit. For example, 1012 bits of data is called a terabit, 1012 joules of energy is called a terajoule, and 1012 watts of power is called a terawatt.
The computing performance of 1012 floating point operations per second (teraFLOPS) is known as terascale computing. It is the performance of several supercomputers, such as NEC SX-4,[6] Intel's ASCI Red, and iPhone 15 Pro September 2023 A17 Pro processor.
Sense of scale

Some comparisons below give a sense of how large 1,000,000,000,000 (1012) is, according to current evidence.
Time
- 1012 seconds—a terasecond—is approximately 31,688 years, 32 days, 1 hour, 46 minutes, and 40 seconds (11,574,074 days, 1 hour, 46 minutes, and 40 seconds exactly). Homo sapiens were living as 'hunter-gatherers' 1012 seconds ago.
- 1012 minutes (about 1.9 million years) ago, Homo erectus arose in Africa, and early expansions of hominins out of Africa started as archaic humans moved throughout Eurasia.
- 1012 hours (about 114 million years) ago, Late Cretaceous dinosaurs dominated the land, and giant squids thrived in the oceans.
- 1012 days (about 2.74 billion years) ago, Earth was an alien world where only single-celled microorganisms existed. 1012 days from now, Earth's overall surface temperature will reach 420 K. All life on Earth may be extinct, although those mentioned microorganisms might survive a little longer.[7][8]
- 1012 months (about 83 billion years) ago, the universe did not exist. 1012 months from now, the Moon may collide with the Earth or be torn apart to form an orbital ring, if both have not already been destroyed.[9]
- 1012 years—a teraannus—is 70 times the age of the universe. 1012 years from now, star formation may end in galaxies as they lack gas clouds to form new stars,[10] and evidence of Big Bang may become undetectable.[11]
Distance
- 1012 inches is about 15 million miles (24 million kilometres), approximately 1/6th the distance from the Earth to the Sun.
- 1012 metres (a terametre) is over six times the distance from the Earth to the Sun. It is the estimated diameter of Betelgeuse, a red supergiant star.
- 1012 kilometres (a petametre) is about 1/10th a light-year.
Area
- 1012 square inches is approximately the total area of Saint Lucia, an island country in the eastern Caribbean.
- 1012 square feet is larger than the total area of Portugal.
- 1012 square metres is approximately the total area of Ethiopia, the 26th largest country on Earth.
- 1012 square kilometres is almost 2,000 times the Earth's total surface area.
Volume
- If 1012 cubic metres of water were spread evenly over the Moon's surface, it would create a layer of water approximately 2.6 centimetres deep.
- 1012 grains of sand would occupy a volume of about 0.5 cubic metres.
Economy
Nature
- An average-sized mountain weighs about 1012 kilograms.
- Andromeda Galaxy, Milky Way's neighbor, contains about 1012 stars.
- It is estimated that there are around 2 trillion galaxies in the observable universe.[13][14]
- There were around 3 trillion trees on Earth in 2015.[15]
- Scientists have estimated that the number of fish in the ocean is around 3.5 trillion.[16]
- The surface of the human body houses roughly 1012 bacteria.[17]
