      Same!! I had one chemistry teacher that really was awesome, but I couldn't wrap my head around remembering all the names of the elements and their electrons. My brain really struggles with remembering the names of things, I'm a very conceptual, literal thinker. So I would bomb every test. I also couldn't follow the experiments without taking detailed notes on the steps and timing, which always meant I had to stay longer to finish my experiments. The teacher was kind and understanding, but my peers made me feel like an idiot and my parents told me this is why the girls shouldn't do STEM. I worked so hard in all my science classes, and never got a grade higher than a B-

    As a professional geologist, I commend this work for its efforts to communicate such an important topic to a wide audience. Communication is still an undervalued part of science as a whole, and how we grow our understanding by instilling curiosity and interest in others. I can sit here and pick out a few numerical ranges that I believe should have been given wider, but the main thread of information is an accurate representation of the latest understanding.

      A few billion years ago, ​@@TyMoore95503, there wasn't even a planet within which a recognisable mantle layer could exist. Earth itself only formed about 4.6Bya.
      Around what became the core, and after the molten surface cooled enough to become a crust layer, some estimates are the early mantle could have been around 1500-2000°C. How much has it cooled since? Really hard to say: it's not just one temperature all the way through; parts of it both warm up and cool down; research hasn't agreed on an average rare of cooling since formation.
      Where the mantle adjoins the lithosphere/crust, it's around 800-1000°C. Down at the margin of the mantle and the outer core, it's been calculated around 3500°C.

    To people who want to visualise just how deep the Kola Superdeep Borehole is, most commercial aircraft fly at an altitude of 33,000 - 39,000 feet, and the hole is 40,000 feet deep, which means the hole is deeper than the height at which commercial aircraft fly!

If you think about it on the horizontal axis, then it makes sense that we have only dug 0.2% through the erath's crust. 12km is nothing in terms of distance...but its a lot when it comes to depth or height.

    The writing is quick & clear & gives you a “feeling” for the facts. For example contrasting the deepest cave discovered & mines & man made underground structures with how so much further down the center is. And, the use of words like “gooey”, “hot plastic” & phrases like - “seismic waves are like sound waves” or “temperature has won the fight against pressure”, and “metal soup churning “ This imagery is like Velcro & makes the fact stick ! As Cleo spoke I clearly heard a bell & saw a boxing ref raise the burning glove of a contender with the name Temperature emblazoned across his uniform with the crowd celebrating as enthusiastically as she spoke. 👏👏👏👏👏👏

    This might sound like a stupid question. But if it will take billions of years for the earth to cool down, how rapidly would it cool down once it initially starts, will it get a lot faster, and do we know what part of the earth would get cooled first?

    • @some72
      @some72 Месяц назад +1

      No it won't go faster but slower because the rate it cools depends on temperature difference and that difference gets lower the more it cools. (I would guess 0K is the reference temperature). The outer parts cool the fastest, as always with a hot sphere emerged in a cooler environment, that's the reason already now the outer layers are cooler than the inner ones. Cheers.

    If you were at the center of the Earth, you would be "floating" or weightless because the gravitational pull from all sides of the planet would cancel each other out, effectively creating a zero-gravity environment due to the symmetrical distribution of mass around you; essentially, you would be experiencing no net gravitational force in any direction.

    • @macsnafu
      @macsnafu 2 месяца назад +1

      Well, not exactly. First of all, with that dense inner core, you're unlikely to actually be at very center of the earth. But if you somehow managed to do that, you would be completely surrounded and constrained by the inner core material, so there would be no "space" or room to actually experience the zero gravity weightlessness.

    • @danlock1
      @danlock1 2 месяца назад

      The gravity of the surface of the earth changes because different parts of the crust are denser than others. It also changes depending on the season, as aquifers shift, etc. The Earth is not as lumpy as the moon, though, which can't have a stable satellite in orbit due to the gravitational fluctuations.
