Very interesting...

In theory, the thickness of the paper will exceed the earth-moon distance. This is because each time, you are increasing the thickness of the paper by two. So, the number of sheets of paper making the thickness is 249.

But in practice, this is impossible to do. You cannot fold a paper even more than ten times.

The paper would still be 1 mm thick , just because you fold it does thicken the paper itself .

The wad of paper, however, would be (1mm x 250 )mm thick. This is abut 70 triillion kilometers.
