- Earth's core is the very hot, very dense center of our planet.
- The ball-shaped core lies beneath the cool, brittle crust and the mostly-solid mantle.
- The core is found about 2,900 kilometers (1,802 miles) below Earth's surface, and has a radius of about 3,485 kilometers (2,165 miles).
- A mantle is a layer inside a planetary body bounded below by a core and above by a crust.
- Mantles are made of rock or ices, and are generally the largest and most massive layer of the planetary body.
- Mantles are characteristic of planetary bodies that have undergone differentiation by density.
