About these units
Earth's Volume (V⊕)
The volume of Earth is approximately 1.08321 × 10¹² cubic kilometers, representing the space occupied by the entire planet. This massive number underpins calculations in geology, seismology, planetary science, and orbital mechanics. For example, Earth's volume helps determine average density, which in turn informs scientists about the planet's interior structure—its crust, mantle, and core. The Earth's volume also allows comparison to other planets, moons, and exoplanets, providing insight into their likely composition, habitability, and geological evolution. Measuring the volume of Earth is a triumph of scientific precision, relying on satellite geodesy, mathematical modeling, and centuries of accumulated observation.
Cubic Foot (ft³)
A cubic foot equals 28.31684659 liters, representing the volume of a cube one foot on each side. It is widely used in construction, real estate, natural gas metering, and HVAC systems. Room ventilation rates, airflow in ducts, and gas consumption often use cubic feet or cubic feet per minute (CFM). Storage capacity for freezers, shipping containers, and building materials also frequently uses this unit. The cubic foot's relationship to the foot makes it practical in industries where imperial length units still dominate.
