Favorite Earth fact: The earth's magnetic North is almost always not at the North Pole, but several degrees off. And how off it is oscillates over thousands of years and sometimes randomly flips every few hundred thousand years. Also: Earth is an oblate spheroid.
Speaking of scale... If the sun was the size of a standard front door, the earth would be the size of a nickel. Also, the word "earth" is at least 1000 years old. Unlike all the other planets named after Greek & Roman Gods, the word Earth is Germanic and means "the ground"
