“offers new insights into how researchers can identify other planets that may host aliens”

Here’s a good general rule of thumb:

Ask yourself, does the planet in question exist in your imagination, or in a novel, television show, video game or movie?

If yes, then it may host aliens.

If it’s in the real world, probably not.

The discovery is helping to explain how our planet developed to sustain life, and offers new insights into how researchers can identify other planets that may host aliens, Vice argued.

Whenever I need credible research on the inner core, forget Earth and Planetary Letters, Tectonics, or Journal of Geophysical Research.

I just go to "Vice". [/S]

The core of Earth is likely very rich in heavy precious metals like good and platinum - all unreachable.

“The ball is roughly 800 miles”
Under the surface?
In diameter?

[Democrat = party of treason]

Blah, blah, blah. They know about as much about the earths core as they actually know about gravity.

If my mom had let my friends and me keep digging our hole to China when I was five we could have figured out what was down there a long time ago.

Will this cause the cost of a 6-pack to rise higher than it’s already going?
No?....well, okay then.
