INTO THE CORE

JAMES DIAZ

We've been on this task for ages, and finally we can go into the Earth to see what's really down there... it'll be a rough ride but worth it

Here we are... into the top layer of the Earth, above the Mantle, the Outer Core, and the Inner Core, the Crust.
The Crust is 0-60km thick, and is made of solid rock. This is what carries land and water, and is where us humans live. The Crust only takes up 1% of Earth's volume.

Now we are getting a bit deeper, the Mantle, under the crust and above the cores. The Mantle takes up around 84% of Earth's volume. It has a thickness of around 2,900km. On the top it is made of hard magma, while as u get lower the magma becomes soft and begins to melt. The Mantle has temperatures from 1000 to 3700 degrees Celcius.

Now after a long trip below the Mantle, we've reached the Outer Core, above the Inner Core.
