The second layer of the earth is just below the crust. It’s called the mantle. The mantle is very thick: 1800 miles deep. The mantle is a little bit like a sandwich. On the top and bottom parts of the mantle, the rock doesn’t move very much. In the middle of the mantle is the asthenosphere. This part of the mantle moves around fairly slowly. This moving mantle layer pushes the earth’s plates around.

Inside the outer core, metals such as iron and nickel move around as liquids.
