Summary

Sunsets and rain couldn't happen without dirt. Earthworms can be more than 6 m (20 ft.) long. The ground is made of seven giant plates that are in constant motion. African lungfish can hibernate in baked mud shells for as long as four years. A million invisible dust mites are lurking in your bed, feasting on your skin flakes.
