Today I read about how far down you would have to dig to get to the core: 3,975 miles. We actually don’t know exactly what it’s like, down there in the core, but we can make a good guess, based on the seismic waves generated by earthquakes. We cannot even begin to send a man that far down. For a price tag of about $100,000,000 dollars, a hole was dug over the course of 20 years that was seven and one half miles deep. Think about it. 7.5 Into 3975. That’s 530 times as deep as the hole that we dug. That’s 16,790 times the height of the Empire State Building.
