the earth would be incomplete
If you were to remove the Earth's crust, you would expose the layer underneath, with is the mantle. The mantle is composed of hot, liquid rock called magma. However, if the magma were to be exposed by the removal of the crust, it would just form another crust. The surface would cool, by radiating energy into space.

What is the thickness of the earths crust in miles?
The average is 9 miles.The average continental crust thickness is 22 miles thick. The maximum crust thickness is 56 miles underneath the Himalayas, and is 16 miles thick at its thinnest in various places.The average oceanic crust is about 4 miles thick.For the entire Earth then, the average crust thickness is 9 miles.To scale size, the earths crust would be about the thickness of 3 ordinary sheets of paper on a basketball. The thickness of a chicken eggshell would be 16 pieces of paper on a basketball, so the earths crust is 5 times thinner than a typical egg shell. And the crust is only as thick as the egg shell at its maximum thickness underneath Nepal.Sleep tight.
