Short read. Global warming is causeing the earth\'s inner core to also get hotter.

If it does....well it wont be in our life time. If anything, i bet the sun will blow/die or how ever stars lose their energy before the earth ever experiences any of that.
EDIT: The writer of this article seems that he is being a bit jermatic in all of this. In the next decade...oh come on.

Interesting, they don\'t seem to be selling anything. They\'re just a friendly neighborhood coalition of ordinary people dedicated to STOPPING THE WORLD FROM EXPLODING. I guess I\'m glad someone\'s working on that. Still, they say
"To withhold, distort or otherwise interfere with the Truth about the Planetary Core is a Crime Against Humanity - one of the greatest crimes that man can commit. Please copy and print this page and this article before they will become assassinated."
Someone\'s going to be assassinated for trying to prevent the world from exploding? I wonder how they got that idea?

Planet X (Phobos) will kill us all next year anyway...

Phobos isn\'t a planet, it\'s a moon, the largest of 2, orbiting Mars.

Yeah, I know..... that\'s supposed to be the joke.
You see, there are people out there that think it\'s a planet, AND under alien control. It left it\'s orbit awhile ago and is headed here!!
RUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNN!!!!!!!!!:lol

Really? That sounds interesting, do you have any other info on it?

Short read. Global warming is causeing the earth\'s inner core to also get hotter.
Quite frankly, that\'s extraordinarily ignorant.
You see, heat transfers only one way: from warm areas to cold areas. You cannot heat up something that\'s 300 degres with something that\'s 50 degrees.
Just a few dozen miles down, rock is glowing with the heat. A few more dozen miles down, and you\'re into the molten rock that makes up the mantle. Hundreds, thousands of degrees. Earth\'s heat transfer is quite steadily outwards from the core, and will be that way until the decaying radioactives driving the planet\'s heating finally run out.
The hottest sun-powered temperature ever recorded on Earth was about 121 degrees F. Lava runs upwards of 800 degrees.
Any heating done by the sun during the day is bled off during night, although atmospheric conditions will affect this. This is why deserts can be 110 degrees in the daytime, yet be freezing at night--the clear air lets heat radiate into space quite readily.
The miniscule amount of heat that the sun transfers to Earth every day is retransmitted back into space every night. The amount of heat that bleeds off the core to the planet\'s surface is likewise transmitted into space at night. The planet has long been at thermal equilibrium.
Blowing up Earth (Alderaan-style), would require sudden energy increase of 1e38 joules--about what the entire sun produces in 7 years. 23 sextillion megatons.

That can\'t be right. The high in Arizona was 122 one day. And i think I read that Death Valley got up to 130...
But i could be wrong...

Well, I might be off by a few degrees, but my general point still stands. 140 degree surface temperature is nothing compared to deep crust temperature, let alone core temperature.

Yeah I understand, but i just felt like being a jackass. :D
-
zhit, why do i have a feeling that this is one of those threads that will turn into how life was started crapola.
NE way, im more scared about this moon hitting us than anything else, is there a source to that info?

if ever the world was feared to blow up, The Hurricane would save the day!

Your taking the whole superhero business too serioulsy. :nerd:
-
Yeah I think the world could possibly blow up. They did it on the cartoons, why not?
-
SPAM: just give the hurricane a lemon smoothie
POST: Well if the earth blows, i am quite sure it will be a quick death for all of us. Thats always something to look forward to.
WHAT IN THE HELL DID I JUST SAY!
i think my jello is getting to me.

The sun will first become a red giant within the next 4-5 billion years. Doing this, it will engulf Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. Then a couple billion years later, it will super nova and create a black hole (if they exist).

our sun will never be a blackhole heck it wouldnt even be able to reach the supernova stage, but u r right about it engulfing all tose planets but after that it will slowly start to contract.

No, your wrong. Every star ends in super nova.

for a supernova to occur the star has to be atleast 5 times as big as our sun.our sun will only end as a white or black (not sure) dwarf.
-
The sun expands into a red giant. Its not a hypotheses, it\'s what actually happens. Everytime a super nova occurs, it was a red giant. ALL STARS BECOME RED GIANTS!!! After that, they explode.
-
i never said it wont become a red gaint.
u know let me find u a link or somethin just give me a few minutes:).
-
I\'m looking up stuff as I post this.
-
ok here it is click me (http://library.thinkquest.org/26220/stars/formation.html) ,just scroll down to the death stage of a star
now admit it i was right and you were wrong ---j/k;).
-
Bwahah.. No..
Kiddish!
-
That explains what a red giant is.

Here\'s something that supports your arguement
http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/astro/redgia.html
Maybe you were right. I\'m still looking up stuff to support mine.

heres one morehttp://www.enchantedlearning.com/subjects/astronomy/stars/lifecycle/.
edit- man what a coincidence we both posted the same link:eyemouth:
-
Found something else
http://imagine.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/ask_astro/answers/971016.html
This supports mine

Actually, that supports both of ours. Neutron stars are pieces of a star after it super nova. So actually, both of us are right. But who cares. We\'ll be dead by the time this happens.
