But most scientists believe the incredible pressure at the center of the planet would've long since pushed the two cores into each other.

The pressure at the center of the earth is just about zero. The geologists are smoking dope again.

I thought the pressure at the center of the earth is around a million times atmospheric. Are you confusing pressure with gravity?

Did they ever stop? Booze and dope are staples for Geologists, and I challenge any Geologist who has done a lot of fieldwork to claim otherwise.

The gravity at the center of the earth will be just about zero (since the mass of the earth is approximately equally distributed in every direction. However, the pressure (from downforward in all direction from above) will be quite strong.
