It would take 43 folds of a piece of paper to rwach the moon. This is because .005(2)^43=439,804,651,100 which would be how far the moon is from earth. This is unrealistic because folding a piece of about 5 times starts to get hard and diffuclt to make the paper fold. Also is the piece of paper actually got that big you would not even be able to reach it to fold it. The width would become very very small because every time you fold the paper in half you get half the size it was before. I guess it could matter because once the paper width got too small you would once again not be able to continue folding.
