You know... looking at it like that... I think you've made an error in your calculation.... a light year is 9.227 x 10 ^ 15 m. Cubed = 7.856 x 10 ^ 47 m^3. One pop can = 335 cm ^ 3 (based on 1 ml = 1 cm^3), which is equal to 0.000335 m^3. Thus, taking

3.35 x 10 ^ -4 m^3
7.86 x 10 ^ 47 m^3/ly^3

= 4.26 x 10 ^ -52 cubic lightyears in a can of pop


Sorry... the scientist in me couldn't help it...
