> if you consider Earth as an island in the lake of the solar system
I mean, "if" is doing a lot of work there! Earth is not an island because it's not surrounded by water. Poetically, sure, it's a nice metaphor, but it's only a metaphor.

Similarly, my home is not an island even though the air around it contains water vapor. Nor is my home an island because there are some puddles on the street outside.
