A world of wonder

Check out these fab facts about our beautiful blue planet!

The Earth isn’t perfectly round. It measures roughly 40,075km around the equator but about 67km less when measuring from pole to pole!

Roughly 71% of the Earth’s surface is water. With a massive 96.5% of that being held in our oceans.

Though humans have only ever explored about 5% of the world’s oceans, we have been to their deepest point – the Mariana Trench. It’s a whopping 11km deep (for comparison, Mount Everest his only about 8.8km tall)!

All the Earth’s landmasses were once held together in one giant supercontinent known as Pangea, so in theory, you could have walked from Canada to New Zealand!

Death Valley, USA holds the record for he hottest temperature ever recorded on Earth – a sweltering 56.7 °C. The coldest temperature was measured in Antarctica – a chilly −89.2°C. Brr!

The Earth’s core is made of solid iron and is estimated to be a toasty 6,000°C. That’s as hot as the surface of the sun!

The Earth is roughly 4.5 billion years old. It’s thought that the first life on Earth evolved 3.7 billion years ago, but human beings have only been around for a measly 200,000 years!
