Earth Science encompasses the study of our planet's systems and the interactions among them, divided into five main fields: Astronomy, Meteorology, Geology, Oceanography, and Environmental Science. Earth's systems include the Geosphere (the solid Earth), Atmosphere (gaseous layer), Hydrosphere (all water), and Biosphere (living organisms). Together, these components shape the environment we live in. This comprehensive understanding helps us address questions about our planet and its processes. Explore the intricate connections that make Earth unique!
