the first and upper most layer of the Earth. There is Continental Crust which sits on top of Oceanic Crust. This layer is made frequently from granite rocks and is solid. Continental Crust is approximately 32km. Below the Continental Crust is Oceanic Crust. It is about 8km. This part of the Crust is made from basalt rocks. The Crust is most of lithosphere and is the coolest layer by far. Mantle is like silly putty consistency. It is the largest layer of Earth sitting under the Crust. It is made

During this period‚ Earth was nothing but molten rock from the collision with other bodies and volcanoes‚ temperature reaching over 2‚000 fahrenheit. Not only that‚ but Earth then‚ would’ve been toxic to humans and modern life because of the lack of oxygen. Only carbon dioxide and nitrogen were presented and some water vapor. One massive planetary
