3 thoughts on “Earth and Space

  1. Earth, our home, is the third planet from the sun. While scientists continue to hunt for clues of life beyond Earth, our home planet remains the only place in the universe where we’ve ever identified living organisms.

  2. Stay away from outer walls, windows, fireplaces, and hanging objects. If you are unable to move from a bed or chair, protect yourself from falling objects by covering up with blankets and pillows. If you are outside, go to an open area away from trees, telephone poles, and buildings, and stay there.

  3. planet earth is still an amazing planet, even though scholars try to discover new planets, go in search of new technologies and ways to find life in space, they have never been able to find a new world as amazing as planet earth. These studies, however, are not in vain, since one can find cosmic events relevant to our knowledge.
