Project Mohole had four phases: Feasibility Study (1957-1961): This phase involved studying the geological, technical, and logistical aspects of drilling a hole through the Earth's crust. Pilot Hole Drilling (1961-1966): A pilot hole was drilled off the coast of Guadalupe Island in Mexico using a specially designed drillship. The goal was to test drilling techniques and equipment. Deep Hole Drilling (1966-1967): In this phase, a larger drillship was used to drill the main hole. The objective was to reach a depth of 3,000 meters (almost 10,000 feet). Project Abandonment (1967): Funding issues and technical challenges led to the abandonment of the project, and the hole was sealed and closed.
