Copernicus was a mathematician and astronomer known for his heliocentric theory of the universe.

Does anyone live on earth yes almost everyone lives on earth that is the only planet known that people live on?

Well, people can live on mars, if they have appropriote supplies, such as air,food, and shelter,etc.;

Water/Ice has been found on mars by scientists, who have been to space, to discover found it.

What will happen if the rotation and revolution of the earth does not occur?

There is constant dark somewhere and constant light somewhere else. This lack of sunlight would cause plants to die on one side of the earth and would cause catastrophic problems worldwide. This however is impossible since the earth must rotate the sun.

How is the axis of the earth useful in locating places on the globe?

The axis of the earth is useful in locating places on the globe because people use the axis as a starting point. The axis is the starting point to go north or south, any direction on the globe and be able to use coordinates to pinpoint an exact concise location.

What is Earth's compression?

Compression is a stress state that acts to decrease the size / volume of an object. As such any force resulting in pressure or stress that acts to "squash" the crust is compression.

This commonly occurs at convergent plate boundaries were one tectonic plate is colliding with another.

Which planet most like earth in size and mass?

Venus is closest to the Earth in size and mass. Its diameter is around 95% of Earths, while its mass is around 81.5% of Earths.

What is the diameter of the crust?

The average thickness of Earth's crust varies from 5-70 kilometers (3-43 miles) on continents to 5-10 kilometers (3-6 miles) beneath oceans. Therefore, the diameter of the Earth's crust would be between approximately 12,742 km and 12,782 km (7,918- 7,941 miles), which is the diameter of the Earth itself.

Who does the earth belong to?

The earth belongs to the people who live on it.

Wrong answer. The earth doesn't BELONG to anybody. We're just temporary residents of it. We should try to take care of it so that it's around for our descendants, and even despite our best efforts to screw it up, it probably will be.

The earth has been around for almost four BILLION years, whereas mankind has only been here for a million or two - figuratively speaking, a mere blink of an eye. It's been covered, alternately, with volcanoes and with ice, with acid rain and methane gas clouds, and struck by huge meteors which extinguished the lives of virtually every living thing. Despite what you might think, a stray styrofoam cup, or the smoke from a cigarette isn't gonna destroy the earth.

It pains many people to even think it, but as a race, humanity ain't nothing special. That doesn't mean what we should be slobs - just that we need to get over ourselves. In the grand scheme, you and I and everybody else are just temporary collections of junk with opposable thumbs and a few brain cells, that just happened to learn to walk on two feet.

Why does the earth have land?

Land on Earth formed from the cooling and solidification of molten rock on the planet's surface over billions of years. This process, known as plate tectonics, created the continents and landmasses that we see today.

Can there be gravity between mars and earth?

All celestial bodies exhibit some kind of gravitational pull on all other bodies. Hence, yes, it is very much possible to figure out the pull between the Earth and Mars. So yes, there can be, and is, gravity between our planets. Needless to say, the effect of Mars gravity on earth is overwhelmed by the effect of the suns gravity on earth. But it still exists.

Why is earth able to sustain life and other planets cannot?

It has liquid water on it. That is standard answer you will get from science as we know it now. It is quite possible though that there is some liquid water on all planets and moons if some in only very tiny amounts.

Since life has now been found several miles below the surface of the earth it is conceivable life is hiding there on many of the rocky planets and moons. Also on the icy ones, there is usually an ocean under the ice. On a planet like Titan where there is liquid methane in lakes on the surface, an entirely different life form pattern may exist...

Who was first to observe a moon halo?

The phenomenon of moon halos has been observed by humans for centuries. It is challenging to pinpoint the specific individual who first observed a moon halo, as these natural occurrences have likely been witnessed by people in various cultures throughout history.

Who was first observed moon halo?

T.Bhoomaiah Chary an Indian. I had observed gigantic white ring around the moon

it was quite visible during 10.05pm to 10.35 pm on 28th June 1996 Its angle is

33 degree and thikness is 1 degree, and its color and shining is like original pearl.After

10.35 pm. It began disappearing gradually.After few minutes due to cloudy shades around

the Moon.The white ring and moon both disappeared behind the clouds.However, after some

1999 when I observed first time at ARMOOR villege. distric; nizamabad. state;andrapradesh.

in the sky and to try to cool down the present hot atmosphere and

pollution.

How many megatons of TNT would be needed to completely shatter the entire planet Earth and disrupt the whole rest of the Solar System as well?

The answer, as it turns out, is on the order of one trillion-trillion megatons of TNT; that is to say, 10-to-the-thirtieth tons of TNT, equal to a one followed by thirty zeroes. Another way of saying that is one million yottatons of TNT; one yottaton is equal to 10-to-the-24th tons. The energy released in such a cataclysmic explosion would be: 4.184 * 10-to-the-39th Joules. The bomb dropped on Hiroshima, by contrast, was only about 15 kilotons of TNT.

Which state was the largest meteorite found on planet earth?

The largest meteorite ever found is a 66-ton iron meteorite called `Hoba`, found In 1920 by a farmer was plowing a field near Grootfontein, Namibia. It is also the largest piece of iron ever found near Earth's surface. It is tabular in shape and about nine feet long, nine feet wide and about three feet thick. It was given the name "Hoba" because it was discovered on a farm named "Hoba West".

Can you say earth were?

No. "Earth was" is correct.

Note: In fact, you can sometimes say it.

For example:

"If the Earth were to be hit by an asteroid".

If you want more details the grammatical terms to search for are "conditional sentences" and "subjunctive mood" .

What object crosses paths with earth and enters earths atmosphere?

Meteors or asteroids are objects that can cross paths with Earth and enter its atmosphere. When they do, they produce a bright streak of light as they burn up due to friction with the atmosphere, creating a phenomenon known as a meteor or shooting star.

How many miles distant is the sun from earth?

The orbit of the earth is elliptical. At the closest point, the earth is 147 million kilometers from the sun. At the farthest, the earth is 152 million kilometers from the sun.

How is it that Astronomers can point to the Earth and our solar system in photos of the Milky Way as surely these were taken from the Earth's point of view looking outwards?

Astronomers can determine Earth's position within the Milky Way by studying the distribution of stars, gases, and dust in the galaxy. By understanding the structure of the Milky Way and analyzing the position of objects in the sky relative to Earth, astronomers can create accurate visualizations of our location in the galaxy, even though these images are not taken from a point outside of our solar system.

Is their a planet that has life instead of earth?

None has yet been found that definitively supports life. Some missions to Mars have uncovered some evidence that could be interpreted to mean there is life there. This is still a hotly debated topic, and extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof.

Is the earth transparent?

The Earth is not transparent. Its surface is mostly made up of solid materials like rock, soil, and water, which do not allow light to pass through them easily. The Earth's atmosphere, however, is a mix of gases that is transparent to certain wavelengths of light.

Which planet other than earth has gravity?

Every speck of mass in the Universe 'has gravity'. That includes every planet, comet,

asteroid, meteoroid, moon, artificial satellite, space ship, star, grain of dust, person,

car, dog, dish, shoe, goldfish, doorknob, rock, computer, soda can, cellphone, and the

lint in every pocket. Every one of them 'has gravity'.
