Earths internal structure, artwork
Earths internal structure. Cutaway artwork showing various subdivisions and layers from the Earths crust down to its iron core (depth of 6371 kilometres). The main layers are the crust (dark brown), the mantle (brown), the coremantle boundary (red), the outer core (liquid, orange) and the inner core (solid, bright yellow). Three simpler or more detailed subdivisions are at upper centre. At left and centre, the core-mantle boundary is omitted. At centre, the mantle is divided into the upper and lower mantle. At right, the upper mantle is divided into three regions, showing two transition zones (dark green) between the upper and lower mantle

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Earth's internal structure in a stunning cutaway artwork. From the outermost layer, the crust, to its iron core at a depth of 6371 kilometers, this illustration reveals the intricate subdivisions and layers that make up our planet. The dark brown crust is prominently displayed, followed by the brown mantle and a striking red core-mantle boundary. The outer core is depicted as a mesmerizing liquid orange while the inner core shines brightly in solid bright yellow. For those seeking more detailed information, three additional subdivisions are highlighted at the upper center of the image. At left and center, we see an omission of the core-mantle boundary while at center, there is a division between upper and lower mantle. Moving towards right, we witness further divisions within the upper mantle with two distinct transition zones represented by dark green hues. This artwork not only captures Earth's geological composition but also emphasizes its terrestrial nature through vibrant illustrations of rock formations and molten materials. It serves as an educational tool for earth scientists or anyone fascinated by geology. Science Photo Library has masterfully crafted this print to showcase Earth's hidden beauty beneath its rocky exterior. With no mention of commercial use intended, it allows us to appreciate our planet's complex internal structure from afar.
