it doesn't. that's just one of the colors, but people draw it that way so other people wont think the earth is so polluted
The Space Shuttle lands like a plane. When it gets to earth, there is a runway and it will land smoothly on the ground.
Earth can be considered somewhat greenish, especially in land areas thick with vegetation and seas filled with algae. But the planet you're likely thinking of is Uranus, whose atmosphere (as observed by Voyager 2, et. al.) appears to be a pale greenish-blue.
Whenever the sun sets in the horizon, we all know that the shades of color it gives off is magnificent. This is caused by the rotation of the Earth. The Earth revolves around the sun and rotates at a tilt at the same time. What may appear to be the sun setting is actually the Earth spinning around to face the part in space adjacent to the sun. The sun is being partially blocked off by the land on Earth to the point when the sunlight spreads in different directions. When the sun finally goes down, the sky is now the color of space which is what you are looking at.
The space shuttle is designed to land only on the planet Earth. It delivers various payloads into orbit, it does not land on other planets and is definitely not capable of doing so.
When the space shuttle goes through the atmosphere, the space shuttle can then by itself land safely because no fuel will be needed. You can use the atmosphere of the earth to slow the space shuttle down allowing it land safely with the payload. The payload will still be on the space shuttle because it won't be removed, only the equipment will be removed from the space shuttle. The shuttle has to do no work whatsoever when bringing it back to earth because it won't be needing fuel when landing on earth.
cuz water and land
It's the water, and the green is land.
Green and blue, because the earth has land (which is green) and the earth has oceans (which is blue)
On a globe, land is green
From space you can see that Earth is klight blue, with green spots. Which are the ocean and land, which no other planet has (except maybe Neptune)
Green and blue are two colors of nature because we find land masses covered with green plants and trees while the sky is blue.
because blue is for the water and green for land
Because of the ocean. You ever wondered why the sky is blue? That's O3 (Ozone). Maybe that has something to do with it too.Water covers about 70% if the Earth and land covers about 30%, Water appears blue, land green or brown. Clouds (there are lots) are white.It doesn't "appear" blue. It is blue. But there is also patches of land. (BTW, there is nothing wrong with that statement...)Bluish, yes.Oceans cover more than 70% of the Earth's surface. The amount of water is close to 326,000,000,000,000,000,000 gallons which is a lot. As the water covers more area than the land, the Earth appears blue from space. If you notice, you will be able to see the brown of land, but not much of it. But it depends which continents are present also. If North America and South America is present, there will be lots of water and less land, but if Asia and Africa is visible, there will be more land than water.
mostly green or yellow
Green
Green.
its called the SPACE GOOF my friend
