Definition
Unable to leave the Earth or stuck to the ground; not capable of flying or escaping to space.
Etymology
From 'earth' (Old English 'eorðe') and 'bound' (past participle of 'bind'). The compound appeared in literary use by the 1600s, combining 'earth' with 'bound' meaning confined.
Kelly Says
Humans are uniquely 'earthbound' among primates because our ancestors lost the ability to climb trees—we traded that superpower for walking upright, and it took 300,000 years to escape Earth's gravity.
