The human brain contains about 86 billion neurons.  Each neuron can form up to 10,000 connections with others, creating a network of roughly 860 trillion synaptic connections. This complexity allows your brain to process and store information in ways that make it more powerful than any supercomputer, yet it weighs only about 3 pounds and runs on roughly 20 watts of power... less than a light bulb.
