Actual Size Of Earth?

Earth's circumference - the distance all the way around the equator is 24,901 miles (40,075 kilometers). Its diameter - the distance from one side to the other through Earth's center is 7,926 miles (about 12,756 kilometers). Earth is slightly smaller when measured between the North and South Poles which gives a diameter of 7,907 miles (12,725 kilometers). Earth bulges out a bit more around the equator than around the poles because of its rotation (spin).
