The planet '''Earth''', third from its sun in the Sol System in the Milky Way galaxy, is a world populated by a wide variety of native organic lifeforms, most notably, [[human|humans]]. Versions of this planet are known to exist in many dimensions within the multiverse, and it frequently becomes involved in the conflicts of the [[Transformers]]. Perhaps too frequently. Whenever something (or someone) leaves, escapes, or is otherwise ejected from [[Cybertron]], there's a disproportionate chance it will eventually wind up on Earth.

Earth is superficially similar to the planet upon which you may reside, but has many subtle and not so subtle differences.

==Generation 1==

===American animated continuity===

Around nine million years BC, the Earth was visited by the Transformers [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]] and [[Jetfire (G1)|Skyfire]], but Skyfire was caught in a polar wind storm and separated from Starscream, buried in ice. Then, four million years BC, the Transformers' spacecraft, the [[Ark]], crash-landed in what would become the north-western United States, entombing the robots within in stasis.

Earth is home to many unusual creatures and "hidden civilizations." The underwater city of [[Sub-Atlantica]], populated by water-breathing fish-like humanoids, gave rise to the legends of Atlantis and other sunken cities. Also, fire-breathing [[dragon]]s exist naturally as late as the medieval era, though by the 20th century, they appeared to have died out. A possible descendant was the unique, reptillian creatre known as the "Beast of Borneo" captured by big game hunter [[Lord Chumley]].

The magma energy of the Earth's core is channeled by a series of green crystalline structures, which the Decepticons attempted to exploit in 1984, exposing a crystal shaft in the North Pole and tapping the core's energy (while, at the same time, happening upon and reactivating the body of Skyfire). Another unusual aspect of the planet is the natural existence of [[electrum]], a metallic alloy that renders Transformers invulnerable when coated in it.

By the year 2005, human interaction with the Transformers had resulted in an advanced level of technology worldwide, and the foundation of the [[Earth Defense Command]], which operates a series of space stations. Saturn's moon, [[Titan]], was colonised, and an EDC base was established on [[Mars]], while travel between star systems was hugely enhanced by the creation of warp-gates. Earthling [[Spike Witwicky]] became Earth's ambassador, first to [[Cybertron]], and then to other alien worlds as, through the Transformers, humanity came into contact with other races.

===Japanese animated continuity===

In the expanded fiction of the additional Japanese-exclusive animated series, the existence of the sunken continents [[Atlantis]] and [[Lemuria]] was confirmed. Later, it was revealed that a small group of [[Autobot]] and [[Decepticon]] [[Pretender]]s crash-landed on the planet in the Stone Age. While the Autobots used their Pretender abilities to adopt the form of humans, the Decepticons assumed monstrous forms and were mistaken by early man as "demons." Finally defeating the Decepticons and sealing them away - within the pyramids of Giza, the ruins of Atlantis and beneath the [[Nazca Lines]] of Peru - the Autobots then integrated themselves into human society, serving as secret protectors who quietly and subtly guided the evolution of human society.

===Marvel Comics continuity===

===Dreamwave Comics continuity===

=== IDW Comics continuity ===

Earth was invaded by the Decepticons sometime during 2002, presumably for the purposes of harvesting its local resources. However, the recent discovery of [[Ore-13]] by [[Starscream_(G1)|Starscream]]'s team prompted the treacherous lieutenant to break protocol in an effort to rebel against Megatron.

A detachment of Autobots, led by Prowl, is also present on Earth in an attempt to prevent the Decepticons from pillaging the planet. One of its members, Ratchet, also broke protocol by initiating direct contact with three humans, who proved invaluable in gaining intelligence on Starscream's operations.

The discovery of Ore-13 threatens to make Earth the new front line in the war between the Autobots and Decepticons, especially as Megatron plots to ignite conflict between humans to weaken their kind for conquest. But if you didn't see that coming...

==Beast Era==

===''Beast Wars''===

The mysterious aliens known as the [[Vok]] chose prehistoric Earth as the site of an experiment, and seeded the planet with vast amounts of raw [[Energon]], installing a second, artificial moon into the planet's orbit and placing several devices at strategic points on the planet. Around the time of the emergence of proto-hominids, a group of [[Maximal]]s and [[Predacon (BW)|Predacons]] from Cybertron's future travelled back in time to prehistoric Earth, where they waged a war they dubbed the "[[Beast Wars]]," and encountered the Vok, interfering in their plans. Deciding that the Beast Warriors had contaminated their experiment, the Vok activated the second moon, transforming it into a giant laser weapon with which they planned to detonate the Energon seeded throughout the planet, wiping it clean of life. This plan was foiled by the Maximal leader, [[Optimus Primal (BW)|Optimus Primal]], but the vast majority of the raw Energon on the planet was transformed into stable, cube form. Eventually, the Maximals returned to Cybertron with the Predacon leader, [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]] their prisoner. The only surviving Predacon, [[Waspinator (BW)|Waspinator]], was left on the planet as the leader of a tribe of protohumans. Although they eventually rejected him and he too returned to Cybertron, it is unclear precisely how much influence Waspinator may have had on the evolution of humanity and their culture. Many would find this dizzturbing.

Interestingly, by the time immediately prior to the Beast Wars, Earth and its sector in space was declared off-limits by order of the [[Maximal High Council]], and likely all information about it tightly regulated. It's unknown precisely when and why this ban was initiated.

''(Note: in the Japanese dub of Beast Wars, the Transformers referred to the planet they were stranded on as '''"Energoa"''', before they realised it was prehistoric Earth.)''

===''Beast Wars II''===

A future version of Earth was later visited by Maximals and Predacons under the command of [[Leo Prime]] and [[Galvatron (BWII)|Galvatron]], respectively. At first known only as '''"[[Gaia]]"''', the world was known to have two sentient inhabitants, a girl named [[Artemis]] and her companion [[Moon]]. Although the prescene of what seemed to be a decimated Tokyo Tower suggested that Gaia was Earth, it was not fully confirmed until release of the ''[[Robot Masters]]'' toyline's version of Leo Prime, the bio to which revealed that Earth had been devastated by mankind's tampering with the power source known as [[Angolmois]] energy.

==''Robots in Disguise''==
According to Koji's father, the planet Earth's main trouble is the inefficient use of energy. Of course, that was before a giant flying robotic hand came to pick him up and steal him, so he may have changed his mind since.

==Unicron Trilogy==

===Animated continuity===
After the first defeat of [[Unicron]], Earth was chosen as one of the planets to receive a [[Cyber Planet Key]], which would have reformatted the planet into a Transformer colony. However, the colony ship [[Atlantis]], also carrying the [[Omega Lock]], crashed onto the planet before it could begin its mission.

Some time later, when the [[Mini-Con|Mini-Cons]] fled Cybertron to escape being used as tools, their ship came out of warp above Earth. Impacting onto the planet's [[moon]], the Mini-Con ship broke in half sending a large chunk of the craft into Earth's atmosphere. [[Mini-Con storage panel|Mini-Con storage panels]] were spread across the globe and the ship itself crashed onto the surface, where they laid dormant for nearly a million years.{{storylink|First Contact}} Earth's fate being tied to that of Cybertron in the Unicron Trilogy is a form of predestination. The human Rad visited Cybertron millions of years ago, via timeslip, and encountered the mini-cons upon birth, pretty much sealing this fated relationship for good.

Snake-Eyes

2007-04-21T07:01:39Z

69.160.3.229:

:''Snake-Eyes is a [[human]] member of [[G.I. Joe]] in the [[Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

'''Snake-Eyes''' is a ninja. As such, he has been known to flip out and kill people. He is also a mammal. It is rumored he plays guitar in his free time. He doesn't talk much and it's not clear what his face looks like under his mask, but at least one woman thinks he's pretty darn cool.

''Statistically, all ninjas are turtles.''

==Fiction==
===Marvel Comics continuity===

===Dreamwave ''Transformers/G.I. Joe'' continuity===

===Devil's Due ''G.I. Joe vs. the Transformers'' continuity===
Originally, Snake-Eyes enjoyed a reputation among his military comrades for being incredibly talkative; however, due to injuries he sustained when [[Cobra]] attacked [[Washington, D.C.]] using mind-controlled [[Decepticon]]s as war machines, he lost his ability to speak and his face was severely disfigured. He subsequently became a founding member of the G.I. Joe team.
