The Earth is the third planet from the Sun and the sixth largest planet in the solar system. It is not a perfect sphere, with its equator being over 27km wider than its polar diameter. The Earth consists of layers including a crust, mantle, lithosphere, and core. It rotates on its axis once every 23 hours and 56 minutes while orbiting the Sun at a speed of over 106,000 km/hr along its nearly 940 million km circumference.
