The Earth...
Ok-- so
what's the big deal? It's a BIG
round circle with little tiny
humans and animals crawling around on top. Not very complex, you
say? Well-- what we never see is what is INSIDE... let's take a look.
Now, if
we look inside, we can see 4 distinct layers:
the CRUST(the green layer), the MANTLE (the yellow layer), the OUTER CORE (the brown layer), and the INNER CORE (the red layer). (Just click on one of the layers to learn more
about it!!)
