  part:  Van_Allen_belt  a belt of charged particles (resulting from cosmic rays) above the Earth trapped by the Earth's magnetic field
  part:  hydrosphere  the watery layer of the earth's surface; includes water vapor
     part:  body_of_water__water  the part of the earth's surface covered with water (such as a river or lake or ocean); "they invaded our territorial waters"; "they were sitting by the water's edge"

        part:  territorial_waters  the waters surrounding a nation and its territories over which that nation exercises sovereign jurisdiction
     part:  ocean  a large body of water constituting a principal part of the hydrosphere
     part:  sea  a division of an ocean or a large body of salt water partially enclosed by land
        part:  bay  an indentation of a shoreline larger than a cove but smaller than an gulf
        part:  gulf  an arm of a sea or ocean partly enclosed by land; larger than a bay
        part:  inlet__recess  an arm off of a larger body of water (often between rocky headlands)
  part:  dry_land__dryland__land__earth__solid_ground__solidground__terrafirma  the solid part of the earth's surface; "the plane turned away from the sea and moved back over land"; "the earth shook for several minutes"; "he dropped the logs on the ground"
  part:  lithosphere__geosphere  the solid part of the earth
     part:  core.midpoint  the central part of the earth
     part:  Earth's_crust__crust  the outer layer of the Earth
        part:  asthenosphere  the lower layer of the crust
     part:  mantle.layer  the layer of the earth between the crust and the core
        part:  lower_mantle__lowermantle  the deeper part of the mantle
        part:  upper_mantle__uppermantle  the upper part of the mantle
     part:  Earth's_surface__surface  the outermost level of the land or sea; "earthquakes originate far below the surface"; "three quarters of the Earth's surface is covered by water"
        part:  body_of_water__water  the part of the earth's surface covered with water (such as a river or lake or ocean); "they invaded our territorial waters"; "they were sitting by the water's edge"
        part:  opening.space__gap  an open or empty space in or between things; "there was a small opening between the trees"; "the explosion made a gap in the wall"
  part:  sky  outer space as viewed from the earth
