The deeper you go into the Earth's core, the higher the temperature: Why is that?
According to most scientific theories, the Earth has a hot, volatile mass of gas, which gradually loosens and thickens.
The surface of the Earth is covered with a stone shell, several tens of kilometers thick. The deeper you go into the ground, the higher the temperature. At a depth of about 20m in the ground, the temperature has risen to 10 degrees Celsius.
If you dig deep into the earth about 3.5km, that temperature is enough to boil water. If you dig deeper, for example, to a depth of about 45km, the temperature there will be about 12,500 degrees Celsius.
At this temperature, blue ice also begins to melt. Scientists believe that at the center of the Earth, temperatures reach 60,000 degrees Celsius.
The Earth's crust consists of two layers, the upper layer forming the continent (including the sea floor) and the structural material in general is granite. Under this granite layer is a very hard black stone called "basalt" stone.
This rock is the foundation that supports both the continent and the ocean floor. In the ground, it is thought that it is a great fruit made of molten iron. This globe has a radius of about 6,500km.
Why does an Earth have such a situation? According to most scientific theories, the Sun and Earth had a relationship in the past.
According to most scientific theories, the Earth had a hot gas mass whirling, liquid and thickening gradually and began to rotate regularly around the Sun.
As time goes by, the air mass cools down and the mass gradually shrinks in size (because it becomes dense, reducing the volume).
There is a red gas block with a rotating sphere still rotating in orbit.
When filmed like this, the gas gradually becomes a ball shape, but it is still hot red and follows this trajectory because of the attraction of the Sun.
The Earth slowly cools, its shell forming the surface of the Earth. No one knows for sure how long it will take for the Earth's crust to form. But at the bottom of the crust, the gut is still hot and still remains the same today.
