Planet Earth

The Planet Earth (地球 Chikyū) is the location of many of the Ultraman Series, although it appears in many different continuities. It is for obvious reasons the main setting of most of the series.

Overview

Earth is the third planet from the Sun and has one moon. Earth is the densest and fifth-largest of the eight planets in the Solar System. It is also the largest of the Solar System's four terrestrial planets. It is sometimes referred to as The World, The Blue Planet, Gaia, or Terra.

It was first brought up in Ultraman Orb and then outright confirmed in Ultraman Taiga that the Earth has four natural Elements; Fire (火 Hi), Water (水 Mizu), Earth (土 Tsuchi), and Wind (風 Kaze), while the Earth's "spirit" is called the Ether (エーテル Ēteru).

History

Ultraman

In 1966, a lone monster managed to escape the Monster Graveyard. This monster, a creature from Planet M35 named Bemular, was pursued by the heroic Ultraman to Earth. During the pursuit, Ultraman's Travel Sphere collided with the Jet VTOL of Shin Hayata, killing the SSSP member. Shocked by this development, Ultraman decided to revive the fallen human, selecting Hayata as his host. After Bemular was defeated, Ultraman resolved to defend Earth from other threats, both earthly and alien in origin. There he remained until his defeat and near-death at the hands of Zetton, finally returning home after Zoffy arrived to rescue him.

Ultraman Geed

In Ultraman Geed, a universal bomb detonated by Ultraman Belial was set off on Earth, devastating the planet. The shattered Earth served as ground zero for Crisis Impact, an apocalyptic event that almost brought about the end of the Universe, until everything was restored by Ultraman King, who gave up his corporeal form through the creation of Childhood Radiation to serve as a 'host' for the universe, preventing its annihilation.

Inhabitants

The most dominant species though are humans. Other non-monster species include the Nonmalt, Underground People, Ultras, and Victorians. Ultras are usually stationed on Earth by their home planets to defend Earth from monsters and alien attacks. In addition, a wide range of aliens from other planets have chosen Earth to be their home, and live on the planet either peacefully, or while preparing plans for a wider invasion led by their people.
