give facts about the earth?
154496
Earth is the third planet from the Sun. It is the largest of the solar system's terrestrial planets, and the only planetary body that modern science confirms as harboring life. Scientific evidence indicates that the planet formed around 4.57 billion (4.57×109) years ago, and shortly thereafter (4.533 billion years ago) acquired its single natural satellite, the Moon.

Some things in science have obvious applications. Some things do not and are just knowledge for knowledge's sake. I think that knowledge of the center of the earth falls in that second category; there is no immediate obvious spin-off from knowing about the center of the earth. However, there are potential and indirect reasons why one might want to know about it:\n\n1. Knowledge about the structure of the earth helps us understand how the earth and possibly other planets came to be. We really do not understand much about planetary formation. This knowledge is not directly applicable, but we might need to know where to look in the rest of the universe for other earth-like planets, and knowledge of how planets form could help. This would be in the distant future, if at all. \n\n2. The dynamo that produces the earth's magnetic field is in the core of the earth, and knowledge about the core helps us understand more about the dynamo. This can lead to a better understanding of the sun and its dynamo, and the relation of the sun's dynamo to controlled fusion, which we have not been able to produce here on earth yet, but which would help us meet our energy needs. So there are possible connections with energy production. \n\n3. The earth's core contains some very hot fluids circulating around, and we do not understand much about the physics of these materials. Various engineering projects that use these, like the cooling systems of breeder reactors might be able to use this information. \n\n4. To learn about the earth's core, we have to develop better observational and modeling tools, which can be useful for other more applied projects. \n\n5. The core is not necessarily disconnected from the mantle, and what happens in the core probably affects what happens in the mantle, including hotspots (that create volcanoes) and plate tectonics (that cause earthquakes and tsunamis). Understanding the dynamics of the earth's interior might give us insight into eventually understanding and even possibly predicting some aspects of these very dangerous natural phenomena. \n\nI could probably come up with many more ideas, but this is a start. So even though one might be tempted to say "the core? what does it have to do with anything?", it is not necessarily true. There are all kinds of potential connections between different fields of science, and one has to look at things with an open mind.

The Earth consists of several atmospheric, hydrologic, and mainly geologic layers. Its components are the atmosphere, the hydrosphere, the crust, the mantle, and its core. The biosphere is a tiny layer in this composition and is usually not considered part of the physical layers of the Earth.\n\nThe geologic component layers of the Earth are located at the following depths below surface:\n\n0 to 60 km - Lithosphere (locally varies between 5 and 200 km) \n0 to 35 km - Crust (locally varies between 5 and 70 km) \n35 to 60 km - Uppermost part of mantle \n35 to 2890 km - Mantle \n100 to 700 km - Asthenosphere \n2890 to 5100 km - Outer core \n5100 to 6378 km - Inner core \n\nArea:\n\nTotal: 510.073 million km2 \nland: 148.94 million km2 \nWater: 361.132 million km2 \nNote: 70.8 % of the world's surface is covered by water, 29.2 % is exposed land \nLand boundaries: the land boundaries in the world total 251,480 km (not counting shared boundaries twice)\n\nCoastline: 356,000 km\n\nMaritime claims: see United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea\n\nLand use\nArable land: 10% \nPermanent crops: 1% \nPermanent pastures: 26% \nForests and woodland: 32% \nUrban areas: 1.5% \nOther: 30% (1993 est.) \nIrrigated land: 2,481,250 km2 (1993 est.)\n\n\nContiguous zone: 24 nautical miles (44 km) claimed by most, but can vary \nContinental shelf: 200 m depth claimed by most or to depth of exploitation; others claim 200 nautical miles (370 km) or to the edge of the continental margin \nExclusive fishing zone: 200 nautical miles (370 km) claimed by most, but can vary \nExclusive economic zone: 200 nautical miles (370 km) claimed by most, but can vary \nTerritorial sea: 12 nautical miles (22 km) claimed by most, but can vary \nNote: boundary situations with neighboring states prevent many countries from extending their fishing or economic zones to a full 200 nautical miles (370 km) \n42 nations and other areas are completely landlocked (see list of landlocked countries)

I am not a professor of geology, but I did TA for a Principles of Geology class, and I have a B.S. and M.S. in geology.  I would suggest EARTH Portrait of a Planet by Steve Marshak.  Of course, I'm biased because he was a professor of mine.  But I find it to be very informative and fun to read.  The students I TA'd for had this text for one of the semesters, and I didn't hear any complaints- which is rare!
