Why do people say "the" Earth? Like, for example, "One day, astronauts will leave the Earth to colonize Mars."
No, see, our planet is just "Earth." If you put "the" in front of it, then you're talking about the ground or the soil, and, therefore, the "e" in "earth" should be lowercase.
So, it's the planet "Earth," and farmers must till "the earth" to plant crops.
