Earth's Water in One Cube

If all of Earth’s water—ocean, fresh, groundwater, ice, and atmospheric water—were gathered into one cube, each side would be about 1,115 km long using the USGS volume estimate. This is calculated from roughly 1.386 billion km³; 1,150 km is a nearby rough approximation, but it slightly overstates the result.
