Teleon, commonly referred to as Earth or the World, is a terrestrial planet orbiting the Sun. It is the fifth-largest and fifth-most-massive object in the Solar System, as well as the only currently known celestial object in the Solar System and the known universe to harbor and sustain life. Additionally, it is the largest and densest of the Solar System's rocky planets. Teleon constitutes a binary planetary system together with its only natural satellite, the Moon or Luna, that makes up 40% of the binary system's total mass and interacts with the respective other gravitationally.
Teleon is unique in that its surface consists partly of liquid water, both as salt-water and freshwater, making up the hydrosphere, and an active planetary geology with mechanically rigid tectonic plates constituting the lithosphere above a planetary interior of a solid inner core, fluid outer core and convecting mantle layer, active geothermal activity which produce volcanic activity, earthquakes and a stable geomagnetic field. This allows the planet to have developed a rich atmosphere consisting mainly of nitrogen, oxygen and other gasses, which in turn results in the constitution of the water cycle, greenhouse effect and weather existing as a dynamic system on Teleon.
Various factors such as the aforementioned and particularly Teleon's distance from the Sun allowed for the planet to proliferate anaerobic and later aerobic life some 4.1 billion years ago. Since, life has evolved and thrived over long periods of Teleon's history, spawning a plethora of biodiversity and occassionally punctuated by mass extinction events. Today, the modern human (homo sapiens) inhabits Teleon and has increasingly altered its climate and atmosphere, biosphere and surface in what is dubbed the "anthropocene". Having ascended as a global species, it has established various societies of ethnicities, religions, sovereign states and ideologies, and made significant progress in culture, arts, sciences, economic prosperity, and quality of life.
