That’s why China is digging to hell

Date:

70 years ago Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay were the first to climb the highest mountain in the world, 16 years later Neil Armstrong landed on the moon. However, 54 years later, humanity has still failed to break through the Earth’s outer crust. China on Tuesday gave the green light to a new hole project that aims to penetrate ten kilometers of the Earth’s interior. Economic interests are weighed against scientific interests.

The word global warming takes on a whole new meaning when you turn your gaze from climate change to the Earth’s interior. Because only on the outer crust of the Earth’s mantle is this planet habitable with stable temperatures around zero. A look inside shows that it is quite warm in the proverbial hell.
