I hope I’m not the only one impressed by the model while disturbed by its inaccuracy of its limitations.
…should have put the mantle in rolls.
All the way to outer core. That’s some crusty crust.
But that part is true. We see these huge seismic anomalies at the core-mantle boundary that many think is a “slab graveyard” (e.g. https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/2020GC009396 ).
Also pieces of the planet that hit Earth to make the moon.
We do not know for certain.
Flat earth confirmed
Good.
Now repeat it with an ingrown nail.
Deep time has seen horrors beyond all comprehension.
Even partially resorbed earth crust/ ingrown nail? Maybe. :)
A layered stack of about 8 towels is a great way to visualise a convergent-boundary of two tectonic plates.
Pushing at either end of the towel stack gives a basic simulation of the orogeny that produces mountain ranges, and shows the strata-deformation that occurs.
Slipping into those DMs (Deep Mantle)
What are you doing step-crust?
If that blue towel is wet maybe you’ll find some peridotite.
Inner core should have the orange one. Too cold like that
