The Milky Way Galaxy is about 100,000 Light Years across. Each light year is about 63,241 Astronomical Units. An Astronomical unit is the average distance between the Sun and â¦ the Earth, or about 93 million miles. Based on that math we form an equation.100,000x63,241=6,324,100,000 Astronomical units Thats exactly 5.881413 Ã 1017 or 588,141,200,000,000,000 miles.he Milky Way Galaxy is about 100,000 Light Years across.

The maximum distance a deck joist can span between supports is determined by the joist's dimensions and species, as well as the spacing between joists. The closer the joists are to each other, the greater the distance they're able to span safely. Two-by-twelve Douglas Fir joists spaced 12 inches apart on center, for example, can span 20 feet, 7 inches, but the same joists spaced 24 inches part can only span 14 feet, 7 inches. Cantilever.
Both the 2009 IRC and the DCA6-09 allow #2 southern pine 2x10s to span 13 feet 1 inch at 24 inches on-center at a design load of 50 psf. That means these joists can span the 12-foot depth of the deck, and the beam can be located at the perim-eter. Nine joists will be needed for the 16-foot width.
