I have heard a team of people in Russia took 24 years to get 12 km, but I don't know if my science teacher is believable. In 2005 a team of scientist were able to get through the earth's lower crust (about 4400 feet below the seafloor).

Have scientist ever reached the earth core?

No, scientists have not reached the Earth's core. The deepest hole ever drilled, the Kola Superdeep Borehole in Russia, reached a depth of about 7.5 miles (12 kilometers) but barely scratched the Earth's crust, which extends to a depth of about 25 miles (40 kilometers) beneath the continents and 3-6 miles (5-10 kilometers) beneath the ocean floor. The Earth's core, which is over 1,800 miles (2,900 kilometers) beneath the surface, is beyond our current technological capabilities to reach.


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.


Why would the earth lose it's gravity if it's core cooled?

The Earth's gravity is not solely dependent on the temperature of its core. Gravity is determined by the mass of the Earth and its size. Even if the core were to cool, the Earth would not lose its gravity as long as its mass and size remain constant.


What is the earths core like?

The Earth's core is composed of two parts: a solid inner core made mostly of iron and nickel, and a liquid outer core, also predominantly iron and nickel. The core is extremely hot, with temperatures reaching up to 5700 degrees Celsius (10,000 degrees Fahrenheit), and generates the Earth's magnetic field through the movement of molten iron in the outer core.
