If plants didn’t release oxygen, the oxygen-breathers would eventually use up all the free oxygen in the atmosphere and that would be the end of them. If your body’s temperature were to fall just a few degrees, many of its vital functions would fail. If the surface of our world had less water than it does land, the temperature differences between night and day would have been much greater.
There are over 250 billion stars in the Milky Way. A smaller star than the Sun would cause the Earth to grow extremely cold, and a bigger star would scorch the Earth. The Sun is travelling at the enormous speed of 720,000 kilometres an hour. Winds blowing nearly 2,000 kilometres an hour blast across the surface of Neptune. Saturn is composed entirely of gas and its density is less than water. The difference between the daytime and night-time sides of Mercury is as much as 1,000°C. Carbon is the basis of life on earth because all organic molecules (such as nucleic acids, amino acids, proteins, fats, and sugars) are formed by the combination of carbon with other elements in various ways.

 
 

Earth could not be a home for life if it were as near the sun as Venus is or as far from it as Jupiter. The atmosphere protects the earth from the freezing cold of space, which is about minus 270oC. A single sun burst is equivalent to 100 billion atomic bombs similar to the one dropped on Hiroshima. We would need over five hundred years to count the number of atoms inside a tiny grain of salt.
Our sun has a surface temperature of about 6,000°C.Every cloud contains thousands—sometimes millions—of tons of water in the form of vapour. Every year, the amount of water that evaporates and that falls back to the Earth in the form of rain is “constant”: 513 trillion tons. The pressure the mountains exert on the crust of the earth with their enormous mass prevents the magma movements in the core of the earth from reaching the earth and destroying the earth’s crust. The speed of rain drops, regardless of their size, does not exceed 8 meters in a second
