Is Earth part of space or is it its own thing?
Space is defined as the vast, three-dimensional expanse that contains all matter and energy in the universe.
The Earth is a part of space because it exists within the universe, and it is constantly affected by the forces and interactions of other objects in space.
No, all planets in our solar system, including Earth, are considered part of space.
Earth's atmosphere is a layer of gases that surrounds the planet and acts as a barrier between the surface and space. It helps protect the planet from harmful radiation and keeps the planet's temperature regulated.
No, humans cannot survive in space without any protection. Space is a vacuum, meaning it has no air, pressure, or oxygen for humans to breathe. Additionally, space is exposed to high levels of radiation and extreme temperatures, making it inhospitable for humans to live in without proper protective gear.
