Top Earth Flashcards

As it’s the planet we all live on, we all know something about earth, whether it’s a little or a lot. Do you know that the Earth was once thought to be at the center of the Universe? Do you know that the speed with which the Earth turns on its axis is gradually slowing; although it could take as long as another 140 million years before this means that Earth days will be 25 hours long.

Do you know the Earth is the only planet in the solar system that is not named after a Greek or Egyptian god? Do you know that the average density of the Earth is approximately 5.52 grams per cubic centimeter; this makes it the densest planet in the solar system. It’s important to know about the planet you live on, so why not take a look at our Earth flashcards and learn some more interesting facts.
