      Now the temperature at the center of the Earth is expected to get up 6000c. Rocket engines get up to about 3400c in the combustion chamber. So just active cooling won't work, but rocket engines also have to be mass efficient. Mass doesn't matter here.

      Nobody really knows what AMSOC did, because it wasn't a real organization. The "rules" were that anyone who applied for membership automatically became a founding member and that whenever there were two members in the same place, they could take any initiative in AMSOC's name without consulting other members. According to John Knauss, "Two of AMSOC’s earliest committees were one to inform animals of their proper taxonomic classification and another seeking to establish groups around the world prepared to greet visitors from outer space." The organization only became "real" briefly in the late 50s and early 60s for the first phase of Project Moho.
      One thing the group is still remembered for is the Albatross award, which was an actual taxidermied albatross that they gave to people for various reasons. The first group to receive the award was the three people who came up with the idea.

    The Sea Lion pool at the Queens Zoo is 7.5 miles from the Bronx Zoo Sea Lion pool. I clocked it. All 5 boroughs have their own city zoos and you can draw a line of the same distance connecting all 5 from Queens to Staten Island. It doesn't continue the same direction though. It's about a mile shy of forming an equilateral triangle with the Central Park zoo and the Bronx Zoo and forms an isosceles triangle instead.

    Somewhat missing info: China is currently drilling two seperate 10 km+ holes, though they are not going for the depth record just yet, and also has launched a drilling ship capable of going up to 11 km below the ocean floor last year. So they might actually beat that US/Japan/EU collaboration project to the mantle.

    If you want to study the mantle, you dig a deep hole somewhere the crust is thinner.
    But if you want to beat the Russian record, you pick wherever the crust is thickest and dig there.
    Might help get an extra km or two down.

      The mantle isn’t really “lava” it’s more like extremely dense hot rock with a high metal saturation, yea so it isn’t lava at all (surprise surprise school didn’t tell you the full truth), if you go deep enough to the lower mantle you will find molten rock but alot deeper in the mantle, you can also find a whole ton of molten basalt “lakes” because basalt has a low melting temperature compared to other rocks, and a low density they float up over time feeding into volcanos, there are also steam pockets.

      No, it's not an error. Z-44 is not the *deepest* - it's the *longest* hole. It has the length of over 15 kilometers right now, but it's being drilled at a highly acute angle, and it's not very deep at all. Yes, even the Guinness World Record book uses the word "deepest" regarding the Z-44 well, but the "deepness" here is actually the *length* of the well, while here in the video it means the actual deepness - the distance between the surface and the lowest reached point.
