Hi there all,
Although many people are more interested in knowing everything that happens in outer space, but in fact that we still have not learned much about our own planet. Quoted from the page dailyquenchers.com
this several fact proves that our planet is amazing:
1.Antarctica
Antarctica contains about 90% of all the Earth's ice, and stores more than 70% of the fresh water on our planet.
2.Animal Population
Since 1970, many species of animals have decreased by more than 50%.
3.Gravity
Actually not all gravity is the same all over the world. For example, gravity in Canada's Hudson Bay is much weaker than elsewhere, due to the fact that there is little land there.
4.Ocean
Although 80% of our planet is made up of oceans, humans have explored only 5%.
5.Dasht-e Lut, Iran
This is the place that is known as the hottest place on earth. The Lut Desert in Iran, recorded a temperature of 70.5 ° C in 2005.
6.Gold
The oceans on our planet contain about 20 million tons of gold.
7.Tectonic Plate
Earth is the only planet in the solar system with tectonic plates. Despite the fact that tectonic plates can cause earthquakes, but tectonic plates also maintain a carbon balance on our planet.
8.Vostok Station
The coldest temperature ever recorded was in July 1983 in the Antarctic Vostok Station. Vostok, which in Russian means East, is used as a Russian research center. The lowest temperature is -89.2 ° C (-128.6 ° F).
9.Air Pollution
The most severe air pollution in China can even be seen from outer space.
10.Lightning flashes
There are 8.6 million flashes of lightning every day.
11.Volcanic Activities
About 90% of all volcanic activity on Earth occurs in the oceans.
12.Fossil Bacteria
There are bacterial fossils found in Australia that are over 3.5 billion years old. This means the bacteria exist before the presence of oxygen on our planet.
