“Deep Earth” sounds like a good name for a metal band.

I thought this thread was going to be about Rearden Metal.

No “Intelligent Design”, mind you ... it’s all random “Happen-stance”, right? < /s>

I would guess there are many materials we have not yet discovered

There is even that one that Bob Lazaar saw at Area 51 that is higher in the element table than anything we normally see here on earth. It was cool because they said it affected gravity because the material was so densly packed that the gravity field extended outside the electron shells (I love geeky stuff)

yes- I believe him- I went to college for physics too, and I have never heard anything he said that goes AGAINST anything I leanred- in fact, it proves to me that he does know what he is talking about

oh- and I believe in UFO’s and aliens too (seriously)

“They also used a new computational method that uses only fundamental physics to model the complex many-body interactions among electrons.”

Hydrocodes are a new idea?

Who knew.

The crushing pressures and intense temperatures in Earth's deep interior squeeze atoms and electrons so closely together that they interact very differently.

I still want to know where these crushing pressures come from. If you're 1000 feet under water, the crushing pressure comes from the weight of the water column directly above you, and that weight comes from the attraction of that mass of that water column to the mass of the earth. But if you're in a cave 1000 feet deep there is no crushing pressure.

And when you get to the center of the earth there is no weight at all. Any mass there is surrounded by a uniform field of terrestrial mass and all the terrestrial gravitational forces cancel out. (Just as all the gravitational forces due to the mass of the earth to your left are canceled out by the gravitational forces of the mass of the earth to your right.)

up to 1.4 million times atmospheric pressure and 4000°F—on par with conditions at the core-mantle boundary

Wait a minute. I thought the center of the earth was millions of degrees.

“Ferropericlase contains both magnesium and iron oxide. “

When and where can I get my new custom lightweight knife blade made from this stuff?
