The amazing country located in the middle of the Earth

It is one of humanity's greatest secrets The exact location of the Earth's center.

he The core of the planet It is more than 5,000 kilometers above the surface, and so far investigations that have gone further have only been able to drill to a depth of about 12 kilometers.

The deepest hole ever drilled to the surface is the Kola Deep Well in Russia and is 12.3 kilometers deep.

the Entrance to the center of the Earth It was found in Iceland, On a volcano called Snefell located within a national park.

This volcano had been inactive since the first half of the 13th century, and that was the place Julio Vernauthor “Journey to the Center of the Earth” It was the gateway to a wonderful underground world, where the chances of it erupting again were believed to be almost zero.

Historian of science Pascual Bernat said: “We don't know if he had a clear motive, but it probably had something to do with Norse mythology; he had extensive geographical knowledge and perhaps thought it appropriate to place the event in a remote, sleepy place.” volcano. Since the thirteenth century.”

he Earth's coreAlso called the endosphere, mantle, or atmosphere, it is the deepest spherical layer of the planet's structure.

It is known that The inner core It is a ball of iron and nickel with a radius of 1,221 kilometers. Its temperature is 5400°C, which is roughly equivalent to the temperature of the sun (5700°C).

Jessica Irving, a seismologist at the University of Bristol in England, explained to the site Live Science: “The more we look at it, the more we realize that it is not a dull lump of iron.”

“We find a A whole new hidden world. However, unless something terrible happens to our planet, we will never have direct observation of the planet Earth's core“he added.

On the other hand, the pressure in Earth Center It is millions of times that of the surface. This makes it impossible for anyone to travel there.

According to research, the Earth Center It is separated from the rest of the planet by an outer layer of liquid metal, or outer core. This means that the inner core can rotate independently and not necessarily in sync with the rest of the planet.

the Changes inside the Earth's core They have an effect on the surface we live on.

Both the Earth and its core are constantly rotating. These movements create a magnetic force surrounding the planet and can cause changes in navigation and even the length of the day, as the magnetic field affects how quickly or slowly the planet rotates on its axis.
