The Japan Science and Technology Agency has created the Earth Guide, which is a sophisticated website that provides extensive, easy-to-understand answers to the following 8 questions:
- Where is the Earth in the Milky Way Galaxy?
- How is the Earth different from other planets?
- Where does the sky become space?
- Where does the sunlight that hits the Earth go?
- How do water and carbon circulate?
- What types of substances is the Earth made of?
- What kind of land areas exist on the face of the Earth?
- How big are the oceans of the world?
The site also offers keyword searchability.
The Earth Guide is a fascinating site that I recommend.
