Professor John Mavrogenes (Mav) from the Australian National University (anu.edu.au) describes how energy from the inner Earth impacts gravity and heat processes on Earth. This is part of a series of educational videos on the energy required for geological processes. This clip has been created by the Research School of Earth Sciences (rses.anu.edu.au).

The Mystifying Structures Hidden Within Earth’s Mantle
Over four decades have passed since researchers discovered two continent-sized blobs wrapped around Earth’s core, and they’re still trying to figure out what they are. Here’s what they know so far. There’s a Subterranean Biosphere Hiding in the Earth’s Crust and It’s MASSIVE – Read More: The Unsolved Mystery of the Earth Blobs “Part of […]
Journey To The Earth's Core | Is There A Hidden Inner World?
There’s a very prevalent myth that the Earth is a hollow sphere, and beneath the crust, there is a whole new world full of superbeings and unimaginable phenomena. The hollow Earth theory is now completely rejected and has no basis in reality. Now we know that Earth is a solid ball of rock with an […]
What's Actually Inside the Earth's Core? | Journey to the Center of the Earth
Have you ever wondered how we *really* know what’s at the center of the Earth? Thanks to some amazing scientific insights, we know a lot about the interior of our planet – even though we’ve never even made it through the crust. Join Hank Green for a new geological episode of SciShow! Support SciShow by […]
A New State of Water Reveals a Hidden Ocean in Earth’s Mantle
Diamonds from deep within the earth carry a new form of water ice, Ice-VII, that confirms there’s an ocean underneath us! Here’s what we know. This Massive Asteroid Is Headed for Earth…. What Now?- Read More: The Hunt for Earth’s Deep Hidden Oceans “These mineral flecks — some too small to see even under a […]

What If the Earth Was Hollow?
What Earth do you live on? A round one? Flat one? Maybe your world is resting on the back of a huge cosmic turtle? What about a hollow Earth? Just a planet’s shell levitating around absolutely nothing. How would the laws of physics work on that hollow Earth? Transcript and sources: Watch more what-if scenarios: […]
Why Scientists Briefly Thought the Earth Was Hollow
Our understanding of the world has to start somewhere! And while early ideas like the Hollow Earth Theory are mostly wrong and sound silly to us now, that doesn’t mean they weren’t important. Hosted by: Michael Aranda SciShow has a spinoff podcast! It’s called SciShow Tangents. Check it out at ———- Support SciShow by becoming […]
