Home sweet home
The only spot in the solar system where you won't need a space suit
Want to stay at home instead? Our own planet has lots to offer.
Filled with liquid water on the surface, life here began approximately 3.8 billion years ago.
It is about 150 million kilometers (93 million miles) away from the Sun, being the third planet from the Sun in our solar system.
We have seasons thanks to Earth's axis of rotation being tilted 23.4 degrees.
Our atmosphere is 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, and 1% other gases.
We have the privilege of being the planet with only a single moon, which itself is filled with remarkable sights.
Our climate is changing due to human activity, and we have compelling evidence supporting it: https://climate.nasa.gov/evidence.
Still, our home planet is filled with wonders. Here are only some of them, take a look!
Mostly known as just the Meteorite Crater, almost 1500 m wide, it makes an interesting sight to see if you happen to be in Arizona, United States.
Arizona is also the home for Grand Canyon, 446 kilometers (277 miles) long, you can visit the Grand Canyon National Park for an exploration worth a lifetime.
Meaning "Old Peak" in the Quechua language, Macchu Picchu is an ancient Inca site you can't miss in Peru.
Earth's highest mountain may be attractive to climb, however, it's filled with dangers, especially of deadly avalanches. Extreme caution needed.
Being the lowest surface feature, this salt lake is another must-see for your exploration of the Earth.
Turkey's "cotton castle," Pamukkale travertine pools are one of the most beautiful attractions that our planet offers.
