The Earth isn't expanding ... much. It does gain several tons a day from "space dust" falling onto it, but even several tons a day is negligible compared to the overall mass of the Earth.
The Earth is actually shrinking. Though it may not seem like it. Slowly, but surely, the land across the earth is sinking back into the water..
The earth is not expanding, the Universe is, according to current thought.
It would. Current models suggest that Earth will actually be consumed and destroyed by the expanding sun. However, life on Earth will end long before that. The sun is very slowly expanding, which causes it to put out more heat and light. In about 800 million to 1 billion years Earth will become too hot to support liquid water.
No. The sun is expanding, but extremely slowly. It is estimated that Earth will become uninhabitable in about 800 million years.
The evidence - for example, from the redshift, normally attributed to a Doppler effect - is that indeed, the Universe is expanding.
A 'nova'.
Some stars ARE moving towards us. The Andromeda Galaxy will collide with us in millions of years. The universe is expanding because of the "Big Bang", so almost everything is moving away from us.
The Earth isn't "expanding" into anything.
No.
Earth is expanding. Earth was about half its present size 200 million years ago.

It is the Universe that expanded, not specifically the Earth. Earth was formed much later than the Big Bang.

I am the one who asked this question and I think the earth's will be smaller as the inner part of the earth is expanding The outer part of the earth is also expanding ans will crack as too much of expansion take place?Pllease do not conclude the explaination as this is only logic thinking not scientisfic logic
No, many deserts around the world are expanding, not receding.

It doesnt effect the earths surface, it affects the the earth surface by expanding cracks in the ground.
It isn't as far as I know. If anything it is slowly shrinking as it cools over the millennia.
In approx 7 billion years because the expanding Sun will swallow planet earth in about 8 billion years, by then all of the air & water should be pumped underground & humanity will be living underground on planet earth because if water & air remained on the surface of the earth it would evapourate out into space due to the heat of the expanding sun. It will take 6.24x10^17 Megatons of TNT to move the earth out of its orbit.
By now, this should not still be a theory, it should be common knowledge.
