  1. Earth

  2. Atmosphere • Composition: • 78 % N2 • 21 % O2 • 1% other • Argon, water vapor, ozone, and carbon dioxide • Affect climate and weather • Shields from radiation and meteors

  3. Solar Energy • Temperature • Average maximum surface: 136 degrees Fahrenheit • Average Minimum surface: -126 degrees Fahrenheit

  4. Water • Ocean cover 70% of the planet’s surface • Liquid form at 32 to 212 degrees Fahrenheit

  5. Composition

  6. Interesting Fact • Has a magnetic field • Produce from the rapid rotation and molten nickel-iron core • Has definite boundaries • “When charged particles from the solar wind become trapped in Earth’s Magnetic field, they collide with air molecules above our planet's magnetic poles. These air molecules then begin to glow, and are know as the aurorae-the northern and southern lights” (Nasa.gov).
