The longest chemical compound name is the full IUPAC name for the protein Titin (or connectin).

It contains 189,819 letters and takes about 3.5 hours to pronounce in full.

Because the name is simply a list of all the amino acids that make up the protein, scientists avoid it and instead use the name Titin.

Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.

Point Nemo is located in the South Pacific Ocean roughly 2,688 kilometers (1,670 miles) from the nearest landmasses (Ducie Island, Motu Nui, and Maher Island), it is the most remote spot on Earth. 

When the ISS orbits at an altitude of approximately 400 kilometers, the astronauts inside are significantly nearer to this oceanic void than anyone on the distant, uninhabited shores surrounding it.
