The Earth Planet
Earth is the third planet from the Sun which is the densest planet and the fifth largest of the eight planets in the Solar System. Planet Earth is also the largest of the four terrestrial planets of the Solar System. Earth is sometimes called the world or Planet Blue.

Earth formed about 4.54 billion years ago, and life appeared on its surface in the first billion years. Terrestrial biosphere and then slowly change the atmosphere and other basic physical conditions, which allow the proliferation of the organism as well as the formation of the ozone layer, which together with the Earth's magnetic field block the harmful solar radiation and allow microscopic living creatures to breed safely on the mainland. The physical properties, geologic history, and the Earth's orbit could allow life to survive.

Earth's lithosphere is divided into several rigid segments, or tectonic plates, which have movement across the surface of the Earth for millions of years. More than 70% of Earth's surface is covered by water, and the remainder consisting of continents and islands which have many lakes and other water sources that contribute substantially to the formation of the hydrosphere. Pole Earth mostly covered with ice; solid ice in the Antarctic ice sheet and sea ice in the polar ice pack. Earth's interior remains active, with a core composed of iron in solid, while the outer core fluid form that creates a magnetic field, and a thick layer of relatively solid mantle piece.

Earth interacts with other objects gravity in outer space, especially the Sun and the Moon. When one orbit around the Sun, the Earth rotates on its axis 366.26 times as much, which creates 365.26 solar days, or one sidereal year. Rotation of the Earth on its axis is tilted 23.4 ° from the orbital plane Perpendicular, leading to differences in season in the Earth's surface with a period of one tropical year (365.24 solar days). The Moon is the only natural satellite of the Earth, which began orbiting the Earth about 4.53 billion years ago. Gravitational interaction between the Earth's Moon Tide stimulate, stabilize the axial tilt, and gradually slows the rotation of the Earth.         
Earth is the only planet habitable living things. 
This is because the air in the Earth's atmosphere and there is sufficient water available. 
The average temperature at the earth's surface is also very good for the survival of living beings.
            Humans are the inhabitants of the earth for living on planet earth. 
Humans have inhabited the earth for thousands of years.
 Plants and animals have been here even longer. 
Around the world, people have made ​​up a story 
to explain the formation of the earth.
