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.
Why is continental crust deeper than oceanic crust?
The oceans flow to the places where the crust is the lowest. Gravity causes them to flow downward. The mantle, below the crust, is at the same depth everywhere, so if the crust is lower, it is because it is thinner.
The flotational balance achieved between rocks of the crust lithosphere and deeper mantle is called?
Isostasy is the flotational balance achieved between rocks of the crust lithosphere and deeper mantle. This balance is maintained as lighter rocks of the crust "float" on the denser rocks of the mantle below.
How did humans impact the dust bowl?
crust from u
What happens as you go deeper in Earth's crust?
As you go deeper into Earth's crust, the temperature and pressure increase. The rocks become hotter and more compact, leading to changes in their physical and chemical properties. You may also encounter different types of rocks and mineral deposits at various depths.

Who has been past the earth's crust?
Nobody has gone deeper than the upper part of the crust.
What type of crust extends deeper into Earth's mantle?
d
Does the earths crust extend deeper below the continents or below the ocean basins?
Earths crust extend deeper below the continents than below the oceans basins (or at least this is what I think).
Do humans walk on the crust of the earth?
Yes, humans walk on the crust of the Earth, which is the outermost layer of the planet. The Earth's crust is solid and forms the land we live on.
Crust sinks deeper into the mantle as a result of increased crustal?

WHAT CAUSE the presure as you go deeper below the crust?
the weight of the rocks above you...

Is it true that the deeper a rock is buried in the crust the less pressure there is on that rock?
No. The deeper a rock is buried, the more pressure it is under.
Which properties of a rock may change as the rock become metamorphic?
crust deeper rock
What causes the pressure to increases as you go deeper below the crust?
temperature gets hotter
