It interacts through its gravity field. The main interaction is with the Sun which holds it in a stable nearly circular orbit.

Charged particles from the sun are "captured" in the van Allen radiation belt (due to the Earth magnetic field).

What is the space in which magnet can act?

Magnetism is important in space in that space is filled with charged bodies that are moved by the magnetism. An example is, the Earth Magnetic shield deflects charged particles and protects the earth's atmosphere.


What is an extraterrestrial body?

An extraterrestrial body is any object or entity that originates from outside Earth. Examples include comets, asteroids, and other celestial bodies in space. Additionally, extraterrestrial bodies can also refer to hypothetical life forms that may exist beyond Earth.


Are we technically living in space since earth is a planet?

Yes, technically we are living in space since Earth is a planet that exists in outer space. Space is the vast expanse that exists beyond Earth's atmosphere, where celestial bodies like planets, stars, and galaxies are located. So, living on Earth means we are residing in the vastness of space.


What is cosmic storm?

A cosmic storm is a powerful disturbance in space that can affect planets, stars, and other celestial bodies. These storms can involve high-energy particles, electromagnetic radiation, and other phenomena that can impact space weather and communication systems on Earth. Examples include solar flares and geomagnetic storms.


What do you call the creatures who live in the outer space?

The creatures that are believed to live in outer space are often referred to as extraterrestrial or alien beings. These beings are hypothesized to exist on other planets or celestial bodies beyond Earth.

How do other heavenly bodies affect your planet?

The sun effects the Earth because of the particles that get thrown out into space can interact with the Earths atmosphere and effect it. The moon has a gravitational effect on Earth and so makes the tides in the ocean happen. There are many other reasons!


What is the field of study of astronomy?

Any study that involves any object in space other than Earth or how the Earth interact with other objects.


How does Earth orbit the sun and what factors influence its movement in space?

Earth orbits the sun due to the gravitational pull between the two bodies. Factors that influence Earth's movement in space include its velocity, mass, and the gravitational forces of other celestial bodies like the moon and planets.

Can you ride an airplane to the moon?

No. An airplane is not designed to fly out of the Earth's atmosphere, only a space rocket has the ability to fly to other celestial bodies and space stations.


Is Earth part of space?

Yes, Earth is part of space. Space is the vast, seemingly infinite expanse that encompasses all celestial bodies, including planets like Earth, stars, galaxies, and other cosmic phenomena. Earth exists within this larger cosmic framework.

How does science define the term 'space'?

Space is the three-dimensional gravitational field in which all matter and energy exist and interact. It is measured in length, area, and volume. In astronomical and common parlance, the term refers to the near-empty region outside the earth's atmosphere as well as the atmospheres of all other bodies in the universe. It is the property of the universe in which material entities coexist with each other and have extension.


Why do we wear spacesuits in space?

Unlike earth, there is no atmosphere in space. it is essentially a vacuum with no pressure. our bodies aren't built to survive in an environment outside our atmosphere, so the space suit basically simulates the atmospheric pressure of earth, keeping our bodies intact.
