Nobody found it . It came by itself . As they setlled they found the other planets . They started to know that the thing in which we are living also such a thing that we found . They gave thier own names to the planets and when they found that the thing they were living on was a planet . They named it earth . (In english only )

Earth is called differently in all languages as english is a world language everybody knows that in english it is called earth . In each language they call in thier own way . Like in common names for animals and scientific names for animals .

Nobody found it .It was just there , Earth was formed a lot more times before than humans as the settled in earth . They slowly started to discover other planets . For them , To know about planets , It took them
5-7 centuries .

???
1) Well, Some apes found the planet and decided not to build a rocket to escape but to stay a little more and see if anything good comes out of it. It didn't, they turned human. Bugger!
2) The name Earth was first mentioned in the bible. In fact it is rather bad as names are concerned. If you lived on Mars (which is a rather good name) you would have called your home "dry red dust". Thank god we have earth on Earth;-))!
3) How does a fetus find its mother? How does a banana find its skin? Been there, born there, going to die there. Fact!
4) First mention of Earth moving around space is in Vedic Sanskrit writings 9th - 8th century BC. The Greek philosophers later revived (along with the Indians (from India) and the Arabs) the idea but, as philosophers always do, had other fancy ideas as well. Through early christian belief (up to 14th cent. AD) this idea was largely neglected (in fact the opposite was enforced on the tip of a sword. The first modern scientists to venture into this field were Copernicus, Kepler and Galileo. (look up "heliocentrism" in wikipedia)

Besides: The sun is NOT in the centre (there being no "centre") and it DOES move!
We live on a small planet in a small solar system, in an unimportant suburb of a rather small galaxy in a completely unknown universe but liking it, ain't we?!
Have fun living!

The Earth preceded humans by billions of years.

You do know that Earth is an English term. Other languages call it something else.

Humans evolved from other animals on Earth over millions of years.

The earliest traces of a counter-intuitive idea that it is the Earth that is actually moving and the Sun that is at the centre of the solar system (hence the concept of heliocentrism) is found in several Vedic Sanskrit texts written in ancient India.

Copernicus devised the first modern heliocentric theory based on observation.

The Sun is not stationary. It moves in orbit around the Milky Way galaxy.

The word "earth" can be used to mean a number of different things. It can simply mean "dirt". This may have been one of the earliest meanings. Perhaps, people came to think of the whole area they were standing on as "dirt" or "earth". By the time people were speaking Old English, about one thousand years ago, "earth" could already mean the world on which people live. It took longer for "earth" to come to mean "Planet Earth"--until around 1400 CE or so.

Who found earth - We did.
Who named earth - We did
How did we find it? We looked down.
Who found the sun to be stationary. It isn't. The sun moves. It moves around the core of the galaxy just like the earth moves around the sun. And it is no stationary in our solar system either - it oscilates ever so slightly. Check it out.

it is a planet which is built during explosion event no human can find it because they born on the same planet & they just didn't know not only who were they but also on which they live.so first human named "Neal armstrong" went to moon first & saw the earth first time he gave the name "EARTH" to this planet.
