| Here's the core the inside layer. There's an outer & inner core that we'll be visiting. The outer core is liquid iron and nickel. Since more pressure is on the inner core, it is solid iron and nickel. | |

| Wow! I didn't know pressure & heat could change something's state of matter so much! I hear that the outer core is between the mantle & the inner core, so the inner core has to be the innermost layer! | |

| I learned that the outer core is 2,250 km in depth and the inner core is 1,200 km in depth. Thats a really big core! | |

| It is really big! You have to be more careful this time since the core ranges from 2,200-5,000ºC!! That's as hot as the sun's surface & the inner core has the most extreme pressure of all the layers! | |
