Is it possible to journey to the centre of the Earth?

Question

And if so what would be there?

Answer 1

no, because the centre of the earth is made out of rock.The earth is divided into four main layers: the inner core, outer core, mantle, and crust. The core is composed mostly of iron, its so hot that the outer core is molten.The inner core is under such extreme pressure that it remains solid. Most of the Earth's mass is in the mantle, which is composed of iron  magnesium , aluminum, silicon , and oxygen, silicate compounds. At over 1000 degrees Celcius, the mantle is solid but can deform slowly in a plastic manner. The crust is much thinner than any of the other layers, and is composed of the least dense calcium and sodium aluminum-silicate minerals. Being relatively cold, the crust is rocky and brittle, so it can fracture in earthquakes. Earthquakes tend to break down the mantle layer sometimes, but it can rebuild itself over time.

Answer 2

not possible hot hot hot tooo hot u will burn urself.

Answer 3

Of course it is. Go out in your backyard with a shovel and dig away (but be sure to phone the electic company to make sure there's no power lines running where you plan to dig!). Dig away deeper and deeper and you'll reach the core in no time. Keep going and you'll even make a cheap vacation passage to china!

Answer 4

of course you can't, it's hot as h**l. and even if you could, there's no point going there.

Answer 5

don't know if it's possible. but probably stuff you learned in elementary.. stuff like nickel / iron.

Answer 6

ibefore you reach there you will be steamed to death because of the extreme hot core of earth.

Answer 7

Not possible is 2 hot u would buuuuurn

Answer 8

Hmmmm....

If you had a special suit that could protect you from the heat then yes....

I might join you...

Woo wooooo

=)

Answer 9

Nope.  The temperature down there is incredibly high, a similar sort of temp to the surface of the sun.

No one really knows whats at the centre of the earth but it is most likely just molten minerals.

Also, you could never go to the centre of the earth because once you'd dug through the planets crust trillions of tonnes of magma would erupt and the planet would most likely collapse.

are you on drugs? lollol

Answer 11

The Earth is a very complicated oblate spheroid, however, in a very simple breakdown, it has 5 layers.

Crust, upper mantle, mantle, outer core, inner core. The crust is very thin, but it's what we live on, only 30 Km thick or so.

After that it gets a touch on the warm side, so you better be wearing short sleaves. Surrounded by extremely hot molten rock and under enourmous pressure, you bravely go deeper and deeper, only to find the conditions continue to get much worse.

The outer core is composed of liquid iron, under ... you guessed it, ridiculously high pressure. It isn't somewhere you'd want to book a holiday.

The inner core is solid iron, but if you've managed to get down this far, I guess it's not much of a problem to tunnel through this too. It's believed that this ball of solid iron, roughly 1200 Km in diameter, is hotter than the surface of the sun.

We can't even send manned subs to the bottom of the oceans yet, so it'll be some time before we get to the centre of the Earth. The pressures involved are just so staggeringly huge it's hard to comprehend.

Answer 12

The core of the Earth is incredibly hot, so no person could go there. And I'm pretty sure there's just dirt and lava down there - no dinosaurs :)
