The Flixies (and of course Facto) find out how wonderfully this ‘spaceship’ Earth is built and how it’s been positioned in space so that different forms of life on Earth can be sustained. They are reminded that the earth is exactly the right distance from the sun and therefore has the precise temperature to support and sustain life – it’s neither too cold nor too hot.
