        I wonder what it would cost, assuming it was possible, to build a bridge to Hawaii.

        About 2-4 trillion and it would technically be almost impossible to build.

              That would be a very long bridge, probably too long to biuld. Notice the size of lake Ponchartrain by New Orleans, which is 24 miles. This would be a bridge hundreds of miles long. It's likely not feasible, sadly.

                Now that you mention it, the projection is unusual. Is this the map they use in Texas to make it look bigger?
