My opinion is that there was more Earth one billion years ago because of the ice age. I don't know if I'm right because I'm only a 6th grader.

Why earth is not engulfed by sun?

The sun will not get big enough to engulf the earth for around 5 billion years. Even then the earth may be spared. However the sun will gets about 10% more luminous every billion years. Thiss will cause earth's temperature to rise to a point where all liquid water will boil off. This will happen in approximatly 1 billion years.


How long can mother earth be around?

The Earth is estimated to be around 4.5 billion years old and is expected to remain habitable for several billion more years until the aging sun expands and engulfs it in its red giant phase. The Earth's longevity will depend on various factors such as geological processes, climate stability, and cosmic events.


How old is the Earth based on scientific evidence?

Most scientists agree that the Earth and our entire solar system is about 4.5 billion years old. To the extent that there are disagreements as to the age of the Earth, the disagreements are in the decimal places. Some argue for 4.5 billion; some claim 4.6 or 4.7 billion years is more likely.

Is there more people on earth or are there more gallons of water on the world?

There are significantly more gallons of water on Earth than there are people. The Earth's total water supply is estimated to be about 332.5 million cubic miles, which translates to approximately 1.3 billion trillion gallons. In contrast, the global population is around 8 billion people, making the ratio of water to people overwhelmingly in favor of water.


In what year is there going to be no more water?

The same amount of water that has been here since the beginning of earth is here now and will always be here, with a few exceptions. 1. Asteroids and meteors crashing in to earths atmosphere will bring in new water. 2. Water leaving earth by going into space with satellites, rockets, space ships etc, will decrease the amount of water on the earth. 3. But, the biggest exception to this stament is in 5 to 10 billion years when the sun becomes a red giant and engulfs earth there will be no more water on earth because there will be no earth. So I guess the answer to your question really is in 5 to 10 billion years when the sun blows up.
