Show transcript
The round Earth is covered with water and land, and above that is the atmosphere. We use models, called globes, and photographs taken from space to think about what the world is like. Most of the surface of the world (over 70%) is covered with water, which is why Earth is known as the Blue Planet. The colours on a globe or satellite image give us information, such as whether it’s land or ocean.
