Earth's Movement and Seasons

The video explores Earth's unique characteristics, including its ability to support life with free oxygen and water. It describes Earth's physical structure, comparing it to an onion with layers like the crust, mantle, and core. The video also explains Earth's movements in space, such as rotation and revolution, and how these affect day, night, and seasons. The tilt of Earth's axis and its orbit around the Sun are crucial for seasonal changes, not the distance from the Sun.
