If you started digging in the center of Auckland, you'd come out in Spain, about 452 miles north of Gibraltar.
If you started at Invercargill, you'd come out in the Atlantic Ocean, about 400 miles southwest
of Cork, Ireland, 480 miles west of Nantes, France, and 261 miles northwest of La Coruña, Spain.
That's also about 1,900 miles east of St. John's, Newfoundland (Canada), and 3,950 miles northeast
of Miami, FL.
The Earth has an equator. The equator goes around the middle of the Earth. The equator is the circular line that goes around the Earth that is half way between the North and South poles. The equator is defined by the Earth's rotation and for that matter so are the locations of the North and South poles. Even without the Sun as a guide, we would know there was an axis of rotation and so we would be able to define the mid-plane perpendicular to that axis half way between the two ends.
It's impossible to reach the middle of the Earth due to extremely high temperatures and pressures that would be fatal to any living being. Additionally, the Earth's core is mostly made of solid iron and nickel, which would make it physically impossible to penetrate with current technology.
We are on the Earth's surface. To be in the Earth we would have to be underground. Although it doesn't look as if we are in space, the very thin blue sphere around Earth is our atmosphere. To enter space we would go through that atmosphere. :D
You would have to be standing at the poles (North or South) to be spinning the fastest on Earth. This is because the Earth's rotational speed is greatest at the poles and decreases as you move towards the equator.
The surface of the earth holds heat, and the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere hold heat all through the night. If the earth had no atmosphere, then at night all the heat would escape out to space and the earth would be freezing.
You would probably end up in the middle of the Atlantic ocean.
you would be melted
middle earth.
No One Can't Dig A Tunnel In The Middle Of The Earth Because The Tempature Inside Earth Gets Hotter As You Go Deeper. It Is Around 9000F (5000C) In The Center. It Is So Hot Inside Earth That Rocks Melt.

No. The amount of miles to the middle of the Earth, in other words, the radius, is 3959 miles.
In effect yes because the suns light would be reflected of it, the nights would be lighter though as SOME light would get through to the other side
No, you would be instantly crushed by the pressure.
The tilt of the earth makes the sun's rays come in at an angle, filtering it through layers of atmosphere before reaching the earth to warm it.
There are plenty of gum tree's growing in New Zealand, maybe a walk through a park would yield a result or a drive around the neighborhood, they are easy to spot.
The distance given is correct if the Earth, not the Sun, is in the middle of the line. With the Sun in the middle of the line the correct figure would be over 570 million miles.
