Subtopics

• Earth science [r]: The study of the components and processes of the planet Earth. ^[e]
• Earth's atmosphere [r]: An envelope of gas that surrounds the Earth and extends from the Earth's surface out thousands of kilometres, becoming increasingly thinner (less dense) with distance but always held in place by Earth's gravitational pull. ^[e]
• Air [r]: A colorless, odorless and tasteless mixture of gases consisting mostly of nitrogen (N₂) and oxygen (O₂) which is the part of Earth's atmosphere that humans and all other animals breathe in order to obtain the oxygen needed to sustain life. ^[e]
