When an object falls to earth does it go to earths center?

Not quite. Wherever you are on the Earth's surface, the Earth's 'center' is roughly 4,000 miles down. The deepest hole ever dug into the Earth began in 1970, on Russia's Kola Peninsula, near the Norwegian border. 24 years later, in 1994, the final depth of 12,262 meters was reached. That's about 7.62 miles, or 0.2 percent of the distance to the center. Before that, the previous record holder was the Bertha Rogers gas well in Oklahoma. It was stopped in 1974, when it struck molten sulfur at 32,000 feet. That's about 6.1 miles, or 0.15 percent of the distance to the center.

Has anybody ever traveled to the center of the earth?

No, it is not possible for anyone to travel to the center of the earth. The deepest hole ever drilled, the Kola Superdeep Borehole in Russia, reached only about 7.5 miles into the earth's crust, which is still very far from the center. The extreme heat and pressure at the earth's core make it impossible for any human to survive such a journey.
