The crust of the earth acts as a blanket and slows down the cooling of the hot inside core. If we drill holes we find that the temperature rises as we go deeper and at a depth of two or three miles the boiling point of water is reached.
Introduced by Dr. Tom Gaskell.
(Repeated next Tuesday at 11.20 a.m.)
