What is the most amazing/awesome fact about the Earth?

That they have had success in soul, jazz, R&B, funk AND rock!

Oh, sorry, I thought you were asking for the most amazing/awesome fact about Earth, Wind & Fire!

The Earth's tectonic plates move at about the same speed that human fingernails grow.

7:20 3k.

It would take 12oz of fluid water to make any beach on any coast wet

Water is necessary for life forms on Earth, which is where water exists. To think other life forms on other planets with other natural resources is impossible is naive.

4 miles beneath the Earth's surface, there's an eco system full of life. There are plants, bugs, and small reptiles that survive from the minerals which have risen from the core of the Earth. Water molecules reach that low from rifts. These creatures will never see daylight.

1 billion years ago, the gravitation pull of the earth was stronger. I would've weighed 186 pounds instead of the 150 I do now.

The earth was really close to being ruled by birdlike intelligent creatures (as oppose to us). Fossils show birds were actually ahead of intelligent development, until a single event, the bird's most advanced species, setting them back millions of years and allowing for our own evolution to be in the forefront.

This all sounds like evolution. The OP said it had to be a FACT.

Aliens created Lake Vostok.

I'm so sick of that fukking Gotye band, we get it, the song guy and his GF broke up. Take that whiny sh!t somewhere else.

This is about the earth!

It's filled with fake fossils placed by the devil to confuse us.

Most countries total nostril circumference as currency

It is flat.

Agreed, this sounds awesome and I'd like to know if it's true/more details.

My fact: the interior of the earth would be a lot colder if it weren't for nuclear reactions going on that help keep it warm.

Also, once you get a few miles below the surface, it's hot enough that all the rock is melted. Once you get deep enough (a few 100 miles or whatever) it's molten iron, which sinks toward the middle because it's denser than the rock. Then you keep going down, and near the center, it's still incredibly hot but there's so much pressure from all the rock above that the iron is now solid once again.

There is more people alive RIGHT NOW than have died in all the history of mankind.

I thought God planted the fossils to test our faith?

From the Earth, the sun and moon appear nearly exactly the same size (check out a full eclipse). Weird huh?

But completely false: roughly 100 billion humans have lived. About 7 billion live today.
