Interior of the Earth

Direct Sources: Mining and deep drilling projects have provided large volume of information through the analysis of materials collected at different depths. Also when  the molten material (magma) is thrown onto the surface of the earth, during volcanic eruption it becomes available for laboratory analysis. •Indirect Sources  Analysis of properties of matter indirectly provides information about the interior. Through the  mining activity, it  is  known that  temperature and  pressure increase  with the  increasing distance from the surface towards the interior in deeper depths. •Also, the density of the material  also  increases  with depth. Knowing the total  thickness  of the earth, scientists have estimated  the values of temperature, pressure and the density of materials  at different depths. Another source of information are the meteors that at times reach the earth. •The material and the structure observed in the meteors are similar  to that of the earth. They are solid bodies dev
