How do I make it so when I open a new tab it opens to google.com instead of a blank page? Thanks

So I open the Firefox internet browser and it goes straight to my home page which is google.com, great. So from there I go to whatever website I want. Now let's say I see something on that website that I'm curious about and I want to google or wikipedia it or something. I don't want to leave/lose the page I'm on so I open a new tab. Well when I do that the new tab opens to a blank page. How can I change the setting so that it opens automatically to google? Thank for your help...
