The middle of our planet is just as hot as the surface of the giant ball of fire we call our sun. But don't worry, we are protected by the 6,000km of rock separating our feet and the core. Is the Earth's core as hot as the sun? Could an earthquake split Earth? If Earth isn't round then what is it? #MyAmazingEarth explores some of these fascinating questions about our planet. 🌎 | BBC Earth

Beneath our feet lies a fascinating world of hidden layers that make up the structure of the Earth. From the solid crust we walk on, down to the molten outer core and the dense inner core, each layer plays a vital role in Earth's geological behavior. The mantle, rich in silicate minerals, drives plate tectonics through convection currents, while the outer core generates Earth's magnetic field. Understanding Earth’s structure helps scientists explain natural phenomena like earthquakes, volcanic e
