Discover the numbers behind cars, planes, trains and rockets - from the teeny tiny to the mindbogglingly massive

Do you know how fast a space rocket blasts through the sky? Or how deep under the sea submarines have ventured? How about the number of electric cars on the road?

Helping readers to visualise and understand numbers, The Big Countdown series looks at popular topics and investigates the great many numbers that make them fascinating.
