Of course not, there is so much still left to discover but if you are referring to the geographical appearance of the earth then yes we do know almost everything about how the earth appears because of the implementation of satellite technology that has allowed us to see the whole earth from a birds eye perspective. But there are still many mysteries, most of the ocean has not ever been explored thoroughly and the ocean constitutes approximately 71% of the earths surface. There is much to learn and we are constantly discovering, and when we do you will hear it on the news you'll find it in text books and new things will need to be introduced into curriculum's and websites, a particular example of this is the reason for the extinction of dinosaurs which is often revised or debated.

The introduction of a sparkling heaven and earth has no longer something to do with the earth being destroyed. The sunlight will nova in some billion years and the earth will vaporize. this may well be a separate journey from the 2d Coming whilst the history of the human race comprises an end. There are actually not any warning signs in the headlines, no desire for paranoia and no could desire to be afraid.

Certainly not, there is NOTHING we know everything about, especially not the Earth with all of its mysteries, unexplored areas, inaccessible internal core, etc. One mistake scientists make all the time, and especially science teachers, is when teaching children they almost never stress enough that scientific knowledge is constantly changing. They far too often teach from the standpoint of "this is the way it is and this is how it works" without stressing how much of that is guesswork and not based on any actual observation. The vast majority of scientific knowledge is a small amount of direct, completely understood observation with an incredibly large amount of theory and conjecture based upon those observations, that may fit the observations today but next month may be proven wrong.

We're not even close.

It's estimated that only two thirds of species of insects alone have been discovered, leaving a heck of a lot still to be discovered and documented.

We don't even know where the largest animal ever to have lived on earth, the blue whale, goes to breed.

...nope we could never learn everything about the earth honey...
It's just but normal that we figure out something new...
but somethings some things aren't just meant to be discovered by people it's the way that works...and yes if we discover something new others might just not believe and won't be the same...

In the Amazon alone, a new species of insect is discovered every day.

Certainly everything has not been discovered in any field of inquiry! there is always something to be discovered or confirmed. So go ahead and research.

i think that we still don't know the earth..we have much to learn although some of these things are unimportant..like for example our family, friends and love ones..we should cherish them while we still can..our lives are too short..we can die unexpectedly..so live while u can..don't bother about these unearthly things instead set ur minds on things above..

ask for God's guidance..

God bless
