It would take 43 folds to get to the moon. It would be unrealistic because the paper would reach the point of unfold able long before this. If x were the width of the paper after 43 folds it would be n(1/2)^43. y=n(1/2)^x, y= the width after x number of folds, n is the initial width of the paper. So you would have n(1/2^x), 2^x is going to be a really big number thus making the entire equation really really small, minuscule even.
