How close can humans get to the core of the earth?

The closest a person could get is a few miles into the earth, leaving hundreds of thousands of miles between the surface and the core. The crust is about 22miles thick, and as you progress from the surface, heat and pressure increase, thus unprotected a person can only travel so deep across such a length of time before the changes in temp and pressure become dangerous.


Who is the best person to ever live on the face of this earth?

It is subjective and impossible to determine who the best person to ever live on earth is as opinions vary greatly. Different people throughout history have made significant contributions in various fields, leaving a lasting impact on society.


Who was the first person ever to step foot on this earth?

It is not known exactly who the first person was to step foot on Earth as human history and evolution date back millions of years. The first known human ancestors, Homo sapiens, appeared in Africa around 300,000 years ago.


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 anyone dug into the core of the earth?

No, humans have not dug into the core of the Earth. The farthest humans have dug is approximately 7.5 miles deep, through the Kola Superdeep Borehole in Russia. The Earth's core is about 4,000 miles beneath the surface and beyond the reach of current drilling technology.

Has anyone ever gone beneath the earth's crust?

No, humans have never gone beneath the Earth's crust. The deepest humans have ever drilled into the Earth is about 7.5 miles (12 kilometers) deep, which is a tiny fraction of the thickness of the Earth's crust. Going deeper would require advanced technology that does not exist yet.

That humans will ever be able to travel deeper then the crust of earth why or whynot?

It is highly unlikely that humans will ever be able to travel deeper than the Earth's crust due to extreme temperatures, pressures, and geological obstacles present in the Earth's mantle and core. The technological challenges and risks involved in developing the necessary equipment to withstand such conditions are currently insurmountable.

How far is Venus away from the Moon to the Earth?

The moon can be anywhere between 1/4 million miles farther and 1/4 million miles closer to Venus than Earth is. That's a range of roughly 1.9% of the closest that Venus can ever approach Earth.
