What If earths core cooldown?
Deep beneath the earth's surface theres a scorching ball of iron surrounded by an ocean of boiling hot liquid metal. (1pic)
It's toasty as the surface of the sun with enough heat to brew more than a trillions cups of coffee per hour. (2pic)
That's over a hundred coffees for every single person on the planet (3pic)
What if this sizzling core suddenly cooled down (4pic)
Could our planet still function? Or would it become another lifeless rock?
This is what if and here's what would happen if the earth's core cooled down (5pic)
Ever since it was formed the inner core of the earth has been losing heat(6pic)
But it's still blazing hot around 6000 Celsius (10800F)
Of course no one has ever been to centre of earth (pic7)
The unbearable heat is the one of the reasons you don't want to get closer to it.
If only it cooled down a bit maybe we could go and see what's inside our planet (pic8)
And if all our guesses about the earth were right.
There are many things on earth that can make life possible. Our geomagnetic field is one of them. It protects us from all kind of space radiation include highly charged particles constantly blasting from ☀ sun. The magnetic field acts as a shield and deflects them around the planet. That way no solar wind can strip away our atmosphere which is also an essential element for life on earth and guess what this magnetic field is generated by earth's core.
As the planet spins two parts of the core. (pic9)
The inner solid core and outer liquid one move at different speed and generating currents. Those current generate our geomagnetic field. If the earth's core cooled down it won't generate any currents. The earth would lose its magnetic field . if that happens be ready for all kind of bad things because no magnetic field means no atmosphere and well no atmosphere means earth will look a little more like mars (10pic)
No breathing exercise could calm you down. Since you wouldn't be able to breath without oxygen mask .
On the other hands volcanoes would be no longer spewing lava. Continents would stop drifting away from each other . And earthquakes would completely disappear. Nobody could survive on earth too long .
