If you look at pictures of Earth from space, you can see what a rocky planet we live on. The continents are vast shields of stone, with mountains covering one-fifth of the land area. The oceans are dotted with islands—and the dark seas conceal rocky bottoms.
There are only four terrestrial (rocky) planets in our solar system: Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. (The other four—Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune—are not solid, but made mostly of gas.) On Earth, the surface is often covered with signs of life—forests, grasslands, oceans, and lakes—but on the other terrestrial planets and the Moon, the rocky terrain is visible everywhere.
