orbit: 149,600,000 km (1.00 AU) from Sun
Earth is the third planet from the Sun. It is one of the four "terrestrial" planets in the Solar System meaning it has a mostly solid surface. The other three are Mercury, Venus and Mars. It is often called "The Earth", "Planet Earth", "the World" "Terra", and "home".
Earth is home to millions of species of plants and animals, including humans. Earth is the only place in the universe where life is known to exist. Science shows that the Earth formed around 4.5 billion years ago. The things that live on Earth have completely changed its air or atmosphere. This is called a biosphere.
About 71% of Earth's surface is covered in salt water oceans. Earth is the only place in the universe where liquid water is known to exist. The other 29% is made of rocky land in the shape of continents and islands. Earth interacts with other objects in the Solar System, specifically the Sun and the Moon.The Earth orbits or goes around the Sun roughly once every 365.25 days. One spin is called a "day" and one orbit around the Sun is called a year. This is why we have 365 days in year. Earth has only one moon, known as the Moon.
History.
Scientists think that the Earth and the other planets formed about 4.5 billion years ago. They were made of the leftover gas from the nebula that made the Sun. Some scientists think that the Moon might have been made when a small planet, sometimes called "Theia", crashed into Earth and bit broke off - making the Moon.
