I doubt that we know less about our planet than we do about space.Information science and its application to managing human issues and problems happens to be my field.
I'd be willing to bet that despite our relative ignorance of our oceans, our knowledge base for that is as big as that for space, we have after all been studying them for a good bit longer. Let alone the entire sum of human knowledge, because we are not sensibly separable from this planet, we must include all of that stuff, too.
