The Astronomy Center has provided educational resources to introductory astronomy educators since 2003. Over the past 20 years, the rapid pace of discovery has rendered some of our linked resources obsolete. Thus, the Astronomy Center will be decommissioned on March 1, 2022. Our highest quality resources will be retained on ComPADRE.org.
This lecture is about the Earth, the planet which we know the most about, due to our ability to explore its interior as well as exterior. The lecture will compare values and processes on other planets to those on the Earth. It covers topics such as the interior, surface features and observations. It also includes a discussion of the Earth's crust, atmosphere, evolution and magnetic field. There is a quiz at the end of the lecture.
