Sebagian besar planet bumi kita ditutupi air. Luas lautan dan samudera sama dengan tiga kali luas lima benua. Oleh karena itu, planet bumi kita bisa juga disebut dengan “planet Laut”.
Dengan melihat globe, kalian tentu dapat menemukan tiga samudera yang sangat besar, yaitu Samudera Pasifik, samudera Atlantik, Samudera Hindia. Laut luas di kutub utara dan kutub selatan sering disebut dengan Samudera Antartika. Permukaan air yang lebih kecil dan banyak jumlahnya disebut laut, seperti Laut Tengah, Laut Hitam, Laut Merah, dan laut Utara di benua Eropa yang merupakan tepi Samudera Atlantik.
Setiap hari, sebagian air dari laut dan samudera menguap ke udara dengan bantuan panas matahari. Uap air itu naik ke atas dan membentuk awan di langit. Dengan demikian, laut dan samudera ikut mempengaruhi cuaca. Samudera bahkan ikut mempengaruhi bentuk alam karena ombaknya yang kuat melubangi permukaan karang di bawah air, serta menyapu pasir di pantai.
Sejak dahulu, perjalanan dan penelitian ke dunia yang jauh di seberang lautan selalu menarik banyak orang. Oleh karena itu, Christopher Columbus menemukan Benua Amerika pada tahun 1492. Banyak buku mengenai petualangan para pelaut dan penjelajah. Petualangan itu sungguh menenganggakan. Mereka menghadapi ganasnya badai di laut dan ganasnya es di daerah kutub.

Most of our planet was covered in water. Vast seas and oceans is equal to three times the area of the five continents. Therefore, ourplanet, also called "sea planet".
By looking at the globe, you can certainly find a very large threeoceans, the Pacific Ocean, the Atlantic, the Indian Ocean. Seas inthe north pole and the south pole is often referred to as the Antarctic Ocean. Surface water is smaller, and many called the sea, such asthe Mediterranean, Black Sea, Red Sea, and the North Sea in Europe which is the edge of the Atlantic Ocean.
Every day, some of the water of the seas and oceans evaporateinto the air with the help of the hot sun. Water vapor rises to the top and form a cloud in the sky. Thus, the seas and oceans influence theweather. Ocean even influence the natural shape due to the strongwaves knocked a hole in the reef under the water, and sweep the sand on the beach.
Since the first, travel and research into the world of the far side ofthe sea has always attracted a lot of people. Therefore, ChristopherColumbus discovered the Americas in 1492. Many books about theadventures of sailors and explorers. It was menenganggakanadventure. They face fierce storm at sea and the fierce ice in the polar regions.
