Interesting fact #37: How far apart are Russia and USA?

Fact

Russia and Alaska (USA) are divided by the Bering Strait, which is about 55 miles at its narrowest point. In the middle of the Bering Strait are two small, sparsely populated islands: Big Diomede, which sits in Russian territory, and Little Diomede, which is part of the United States.
