At a depth of approximately 3,500 kilometers within the Earth, the inferred interior pressure is estimated to be around 1.2 million atmospheres. This immense pressure results from the weight of the overlying rock and the gravitational forces acting on the Earth's materials. The extreme conditions at such depths play a crucial role in the behavior of materials and the dynamics of Earth's interior.
Scientist have been exploring life below Earth's surface and continue to find living organisms in deeper and more extreme environments.Microorganisms that thrive underground in the absence of sunlight account for about 50% of the earth's biomass.Microbial life has been found in the rocks of mines at depths of up to five kilometers and at temperatures of 60°C. Other microbes have demonstrated a capacity to live at temperatures above 120°C (in hot springs and deep-sea hydrothermal vents) and so may be capable of living at much greater depths. Soviet and British scientist are searching for bacterial life in deep lakes in Antarctica, covered by 2 kilometers of ice for tens of millions of years. Bacteria are found in the Marianas Trench, the deepest place on Earth, 6 miles or 10 kilometers below the ocean surface at 1,000 atmospheres pressure. There are other examples as well.
the grand canyon formed over millions and millions of years ago
millions and millions of dollars, i personally bought one for 1.5 million dollars, it was worth it
The murder of millions upon millions of innocent lives, including 6.3 million Jews and 3.1 million Gypsies.
Not just millions. Earth has sustained life for several billion years.

The solar system is believed to be 4,568 million years old.
The interior plains cover a vast area of North America, extending across the central regions of both the United States and Canada. They encompass millions of square kilometers, making them one of the largest continuous plains regions in the world.
They inferred that the Appalachian Mountains have been eroding for millions of years.
The thickness of the bedrock in the interior planes can vary, but it is typically several kilometers deep. This thickness is due to the accumulation of various rock layers over millions of years, as well as tectonic processes such as folding and faulting that have created thickened sections of the Earth's crust in these regions.
The Sun's atmosphere is thin compared to its interior. The outer layer, called the corona, is extremely tenuous with a low density of particles. However, it extends millions of kilometers into space.
No. It is millions of kilometers from the Sun.
The layers of the Sun's interior, starting from the middle, are the core, where nuclear fusion occurs; the radiative zone, where energy is transferred outward by radiation; and the convective zone, where energy moves through convection currents. Above the interior, the Sun's atmosphere consists of the photosphere (the visible surface), the chromosphere (a thin layer above the photosphere), and the corona (the outermost layer, extending millions of kilometers into space).
Yes, it is truly amazing.
