The United States Navy is a powerhouse. The fleet consists of roughly 430 ships in active service or reserve. The vessels run the gamut from the massive Nimitz-class aircraft carrier, which stretches more than 1,000 feet, to the Los Angeles-class submarine that slithers 900 feet below the ocean surface.he fleet consists of roughly 430 ships in active service or reserve.

Community Q&A. Believe it or not, a goldfish could live for 10-25 years or longer if it's given proper care. However, with normal care it usually lives for about 6 years. The Guinness Book of World Records cites a goldfish named Tish that lived 43 years after being won at a fair in England in 1956!
Goldfish are actually very complex creatures. Amazingly, they can reach lengths of 12 or more inches and live 10 to 20 years. The oldest goldfish on record was over 40 years! Goldfish are among the hardiest of fish, and can survive through the worst of conditions. They are perfectly adapted to life in a pond, just like their wild carp ancestors.
