00:00Here are some facts about our spinning Earth that you won't learn anywhere else.

00:04Did you know that the Earth is a bit wider at the equator than it is tall from pole to pole?

00:10This is because the Earth is actually flat.

00:13No, not flat like a pancake, but flat like a disc.

00:18If you were to stand at the North Pole and measure the Earth,

00:22you would find that it is about 43,000 kilometers wide.

00:26But if you were to do the same thing at the equator,

00:28you would find that the Earth is actually 46,000 kilometers wide.

00:34That's a difference of 3,000 kilometers.

00:37So why is the Earth wider at the equator?

00:40It's all because of gravity.

00:42The force of gravity pulls everything towards the center of the Earth.

00:47So if you were to stand on the Earth at the North Pole,

00:50you would be closer to the center of the Earth than someone who is standing at the equator.

00:55Because of this, the Earth is a bit flatter at the poles,

00:58and a bit wider at the equator.

01:07You're welcome.

01:11Hello.

01:16Hello.
