Our home planet is a rocky world with an abundance of liquid water, a stable atmosphere, and a magnetic field capable of diverting most of the solar wind from its surface. Terra is host to a unique, complex, and ongoing chemical reaction known as life. More commonly called Earth, this planet's characteristic white clouds and blue oceans make it instantly recognizable from outer space. And the patches of dark green on its brown land masses indicate the presence of organisms engaged in photosynthesis - in other words, plant life.
