«16 Thus, Lindsell posits that the cock crowed six times for Peter (in order to harmonize the Gospel accounts); he concludes that «about 23,500» people died on a certain single day (in order to account for Numbers 25:9 citing 24,000 as the figure while Paul asserts in 1 Corinthians 10:8 that it was 23,000); and he hypothesizes that the «molten sea» described in 2 Chronicles 4 as being ten cubits in diameter and thirty cubits in circumference (although we know that C = BD, I. e., the circumference of something ten cubits in diameter is actually 31.4159 cubits) can be understood if the vessel is considered to have sides that are four inches thick, and if the measurement for diameter is taken from the outer edges while the measurement of circumference is taken from the inner edge.17

Heat from Earth's inner core, which is as hot as the surface of the sun, churns an outer core of molten iron and nickel, generating a magnetic field that deflects lethal cosmic and solar radiation away from the planet.

Besides having the right mix of ingredients and pressures, this range defines a well - known transition zone within the mantle, the 2900 - kilometer - or - so - thick layer of slowly circulating material that lies between Earth's crust and its outer core of molten iron.

The researchers developed a method for measuring strength and finding weak spots in the lithosphere, the outer layers of earth that include the crust and the outer mantle — the molten rock lurking just under the surface that can well up and create volcanoes.

Below the mantle is the outer core, composed of liquid, molten iron and nickel, which envelopes an inner core of solid iron at the center of the planet.

At roughly 3000 °C, it lacks a surface but has an outer edge marked by clouds of molten rock that form silica raindrops.

But the rocks were erupted less than 500,000 years ago, and younger outer layers of the same crystals were added later, indicating to researchers they'd been dipped repeatedly in molten magma.

A previous paper by Garrick - Bethell and some of the same coauthors described the effects of tidal stretching and heating of the moon's crust at a time 4.4 billion years ago when the solid outer crust still floated on an ocean of molten rock.

That rules out some previously proposed ways of forming Mercury with its relatively huge molten iron core, such as having the nascent sun blasting away the outer rind of an Earthlike planet.

The mantle, which makes up more than four - fifths of the earth's volume, is energized by radioactive heating within it and by the molten iron outer core below it.

There's the familiar thin crust of continents and ocean floors; the thick mantle of hot, semisolid rock; the molten metal outer core; and the solid iron inner core.

Most of Earth's magnetic field is generated deep within the outer core by an ocean of superheated molten iron.

Our planet's magnetic field is generated by molten iron swirling around in the planet's outer core around a smaller, solid core — a process that creates a self - sustaining geomagnetic dynamo.

So, tracking changes in the magnetic field can reveal how the superheated, swirling mass of molten iron in the outer core behaves.

The MESSENGER observations and data from the two earlier Mariner 10 flybys are consistent enough to describe a dipolar field with an active electrical dynamo in which the magnetic field is produced by electrical currents flowing in an outer core of molten metal (more discussion and images from MESSENGER's January 2008 flyby).

Track design is unique as there are three environments including the tropical islands and shipwrecks in the four Paradise Adventure tracks, while a mixture of molten lava and frozen, snowy surfaces and backdrops are situated throughout the four tracks of Frozen Forgeway, alongside Galactic Odyssey's four tracks set in outer space upon planets, moons and ships in which the player can lean forwards for a different view of the on - track action.
