The outer core is often depicted as orange in illustrations due to its high temperatures and molten iron and nickel composition, which can emit a warm glow. This color representation helps visualize its state as a liquid layer beneath the solid mantle and above the inner core. The orange hue symbolizes the intense heat and dynamic movement of molten metals that generate Earth's magnetic field.
