Charles Darwin estimated the age of the Earth to be several hundred million years old based on his theory of evolution. This was in contrast to the prevailing belief at the time that the Earth was only a few thousand years old according to biblical accounts.
Historically, observations of lunar eclipses, the phenomenon of ships disappearing over the horizon, and the ability to see different constellations from different locations on Earth were used as evidence to demonstrate that the Earth is not flat but rather a sphere. These observations, along with mathematical calculations and later space exploration, have further confirmed the Earth's shape.
Rainforests once covered 14% of the earth's land surface; now they cover a mere 6% and experts estimate that the last remaining rainforests could be consumed in less than 40 years.
Rainforests once covered 14 precent of the worlds surface.
The Daintree Rainforest in Australia is estimated to be around 180 million years old, making it one of the oldest rainforests in the world. It is considered a living museum due to its ancient lineage and unique biodiversity.
No. Earth's orbit is stable.
500 hundred year
The Earth is 4.6 billion years old, give or take a hundred million years. It has been habitable for almost 4.5 billion years. The Earth and the Sun and other planets formed at the same time, give or take a hundred million years. The Universe is much older, over 13 billion years.
Earth's poles are to switch every few hundred thousand years.
It is highly unlikely. A million years is a short time on a geologic timescale. Earth will remain habitable for a few hundred million years into the future.
YES. And in a hundred or so million years it will almost touch earth. We will not be here.
Ophiuchus is a constellation located approximately 28 light-years away from Earth.

Yes the Hoh Rainforest does have logging. it has for the past 5 years.
No. We are safe for a few hundred million years.
