earth and beyond the earth because geography studies everything, for example,
geography talks about the lithosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, and
anthroposphere.
lithosphere is the study of the earth's crust which discusses the movement of
plates, then the hydrosphere discusses water or water layers on earth, then there
is the biosphere which discusses life on earth such as humans, plants, animals so
