Since the interior of the Earth is above 212 degrees Fahrenheit, any water therein would be in a gaseous state.
Yes, but it seems they were re-thinking the theory that all water on the earth was brought here via comets or some other extra-terrestrial source.
Or just for balance, add a little ball showing what they consider to be ‘surface material.’ We’re always told the surface of the earth is 3/4 liquid, which makes that graphic a bit hard to stomach.
According to Al Gore the temperature at the center of earth is "millions of degrees". He was 'only' off by a factor between 4 and 5 hundred!! (several million vs ~7230 deg F!)

CONAN O'BRIEN, HOST: ...to create energy, and it sounds to me like an evil plan by Lex Luthor to defeat Superman. Can you, can you tell me, is this a viable solution, geothermal energy?
AL GORE: It definitely is, and it's a relatively new one. People think about geothermal energy - when they think about it at all - in terms of the hot water bubbling up in some places, but two kilometers or so down in most places there are these incredibly hot rocks, 'cause the interior of the earth is extremely hot, several million degrees, and the crust of the earth is hot ...

The physics and astronomy website Physlink contests Gore's absurd claim:
It is approximately 4000 degC [7230 degF] at the centre of the Earth.
