Attached are two files, a schematic I did colored lines and another on a paper that showed how I was able to derive them.
*Sorry, just one file please.*
I could not find a better way to get it done within the time frame.
Thanks.

Word search winners: Chibuikem and Ayodeji (2,500 Naira each). The rationale is because Chibuikem posted first but with 19 words marked and identified and later modified (Earth) as can be seen on the time stamps after Ayodeji had correctly identified the 20 words but had not encircled or marked them accordingly, which he later on did. Hope this is a beneficial solution for everyone as consistent with the rules of fairness and transparency.
Congratulations and thank you.

At 6:13am that I submitted my answer to the puzzle, I would have uploaded the cross out too but that wasn't in the instruction. The question IMO is to find the 20 words and I found it first.
Anyway, congrats to chibuikem and thank you too admin for this forum game. Happy birthday to him

Dear Ayodeji, thank you for your submissions and best wishes.
Just to clarify, our instruction on the word puzzle (search) is this: "...required to be solved." and not "to find 20 words", which you thought in your opinion. The '20 words' only comes in as a hint provided. We could have as well also left out this hint and the puzzle would still be required to be solved by the marking of the words accordingly as the norm (largely) for word puzzles.
Also, just to add that even if the instruction is, as you had thought "to find 20 words", the find in this context by general rule of solving word puzzles would still be to mark out the words and not necessarily to only list them out unless if explicitly stated to do so.
I hope this helps. Again, thanks and congratulations!
