FACTS ABOUT THE EARTH The Earth is very nearly an oblate sphe-roid whose shorter axis coincides with its axis of rotation passing through the two poles. According to Colonel Clark's calculations, its major axis measures 41,852,124 feet, or 7,926.5 statute miles, its minor axis 41, 710,- 242 feet, or 7,899.5 statute miles, its cir cumference along the Equator measures 24,902 statute miles, or 21,600 geographical miles; its total area 196,140,400 statute sq. miles and its volume 259,880 million cubic miles. Of this total area 8.4 percent (16,464,700 sq. miles) are within the Arctic and Antarc tic regions; 51.6 per cent (102,244,654 sq. miles) within the two temperate regions; 40 per cent (78,231,046 sq. miles) within the Tropics. The Land.The land covers 54,807,420 sq. miles on the assumption that 250,000 sq. miles of land remain to be discovered with in the Arctic regions, and that the supposed Antarctic Continent or "Antarctic" has an extent of 2,500,000 sq. miles within the Ant arctic Circle. The Oceans. The oceans including the inland seas connected with them, cover 141,132,980 sq. miles or 72 per cent of the total surface of the Earth. There are 2.59 sq. miles of ocean to every sq. mile of land. The area is distributed over the different areas as follows: Arctic Ocean, including Hudson Bay, 5,785,000 sq. miles; Atlantic Ocean 34,301,- 400 sq. miles; Indian Ocean 28,615,600 sq. miles; Pacific Ocean 67,699,630 sq. miles; Antarctic Ocean 5,731,350 sq. miles. Heights and Depths. The mean height of the land has been estimated at 2,440 feet; the mean depth of the sea 11,470 feet (Kar-stans) the highest mountain (Mt. Everest) rises to a height of 29,000 feet, the greatest depth of the ocean as yet discovered (in the Pacific between Guam and Midway) is 31,- 614 feet. If the whole of the solid crust of the earth were to be leveled so as to form a spheroid, it would still be covered by an ocean of a uniform depth of 8,000 feet.
