Earth is the third planet from the Sun and the only place, that we know of, that is inhabited by life

About the Model

All of the planets, except for the Earth, were named after ancient Greek and Roman gods and goddesses. The name Earth comes from a German word, meaning “the ground.” Earth is our home planet with a dynamic surface of mountains and canyons. Most of our planet is covered in water. The Earth has one moon and it takes the Earth 365 days to orbit the Sun.
