The carnivorous Venus flytrap plant,
found only on the wet coastal plains of
North and South Carolina, can count.
It requires two separate stimuli on
trigger hairs before the trap is sprung
to avoid false alarms caused by
raindrops, twigs, etc.
During the Apollo Space Program
NASA launched a total of 13 Saturn V
rockets from the Kennedy Space Center.
Each rocket was 363 ft (111 m) high,
weighed around 3000 tons (tonnes)
and generated 7,648,000 lbs (34 MN)
of thrust at launch.
