kola Superdeep- The Deepest Hole On The Earth

The Kola Superdeep Borehole is the result of a scientific drilling project of the Soviet Union in the Pechengsky District, on the Kola Peninsula. The project attempted to drill as deep as possible into the Earth's crust. With a depth of 12,262 metres, it has been since 1989 the deepest artificial point on Earth. 

Why did they stop drilling the Kola Superdeep borehole?

According to the studies - read that the Russians began this Kola Peninsula deep hole at the middle of the earth. The digging reached over fifty thousand feet and apparently discontinued due to the fact that the earth's core was radiating temperatures of more than 500 degrees centigrade.

What was found in the Kola Superdeep borehole?

The Kola Superdeep Borehole was just 9 inches in diameter, but at 40,230 feet (12,262 meters) reigns as the deepest hole. It took almost 20 years to reach that 7.5-mile depth—only half the distance or less to the mantle. Among the more interesting discoveries: microscopic plankton fossils found at four miles down.

It is incredible so many things to do to improve life on earth and you spend amounts of money to discover on and off the earth I do not know that, that hole I do not think will improve the social economic spiritual disorder that we have on earth, every time we destroy it more. I don't know why I think it is the only planet that is left alive, the human being is destroyer of the ecosystem.

You can't just take photos from Google. Google shows pictures from other sites. If you didn't take the photos yourself, you have to indicate where the photo came from.
