Some (Mon)days you might just want to get away. Or maybe you’re just a huge fan of that classique of modern cinema, The Core.
What If You Just Keep Digging? – YouTube
Have you ever thought, “what if I just dug a really really deep hole?”
Well, the USSR actually did. The hole they dug is deeper than the deepest part of the ocean. It’s deeper than Mt. Everest is tall! They began digging it in the 1970s as part of a space race, but down. The United States only got to 600 ft before pulling funding. But the USSR kept going for 20 years. They made it about a third of the way through the Earth’s crust and then STOPPED.
But what if… you just… kept… digging?
If you dug a hole to the center of the Earth, what would you find? What would happen to you? And what does our newest tech tell us is REALLY down below your feet?
