Indirect evidence from Seismic Waves, and direct evidence from rock samples.
Indirect evidence from Seismic Waves, and direct evidence from rock samples.
Scientists used detectors which determined the mantle existed. As well, scientists must hypothesize and theorize what cannot be readily seen, and make determinations based on the evidence that does exist.
Types of rocks are inside the Earth, so scientists study them.
Scientists determine the boundaries of different time periods by studying the rock layers, fossils, and other evidence found in the Earth's crust. They use techniques such as radiometric dating to determine the age of the rocks and fossils, which helps them establish the boundaries and define the different time periods in Earth's history.

Seismic waves, including earthquakes, are used to study the inside of the Earth. By analyzing how these waves travel through the Earth, scientists can determine the composition, structure, and behavior of different layers within the planet.

Scientists have used seismic waves from earthquakes to study the Earth's interior. By analyzing how these waves travel through the Earth, scientists have been able to determine the density and composition of different layers like the crust, mantle, and core. Additionally, studies of meteorites and laboratory experiments have provided further insights into the Earth's composition.
So far Earth. They do have robots on Mars so they could be evidence.
The primary piece of evidence used to determine the phase of the Earth's core is seismic waves. By studying how seismic waves pass through the core, scientists can infer information about its composition, temperature, and state (solid inner core, liquid outer core).
Scientists use radiometric dating to determine the age of the Earth by measuring the decay of radioactive isotopes in rocks and minerals. By analyzing the ratio of parent isotopes to daughter isotopes, scientists can calculate the age of the Earth based on the rate of decay of these isotopes.
Scientists say yes.
