Secret of Earth's Inner Core Revealed..!?

What is inside the Earth? These questions are asked in greater depth and detail as science develops. Asking questions and seeking answers is fundamental to scientific progress, so feel free to ask questions, scientists say. According to the results of new research, our planet is said to have a unique iron ball inside its metallic core. After years of astronomical research, the secret of Earth's core has been revealed, the science journal Nature Communications reported on Tuesday. But the temperature of the molten-liquid core inside the solid Earth's surface is thousands of degrees. What lies beyond that, deep in the Earth's inner core, has been something scientists have been searching for for years. Searching for the answer to the question of what is in the inner core of the Earth, scientists were confused. The answer to those confusions has been found. Scientists have uncovered the secret of the Earth by uncovering the facts of the Earth's solid upper layer beneath the molten liquid core.
The landmark study says that the core, now found to be in the Earth's interior, is a 644-kilometer-wide ball of iron-nickel alloy. It is noteworthy that this ball has not been discovered before. Its outer layer consists of a similar iron-nickel alloy. So, scientists used seismic probes to study what is inside our own planet. Seismic waves travel across the Earth after an earthquake, changing their path and orientation as they pass through different objects. This helps geophysicists understand what lies in the mysterious core of the Earth. The scientists involved in the study used a similar process to inform their findings. In this study, for the first time, we have analyzed observations of seismic waves from powerful earthquakes traveling back and forth from one side of the globe, say the researchers.In addition, they say, the inner core transitions from the inner (solid) ball to the outer shell (solid shell), which is why we cannot observe it through direct reflections of seismic waves from it. How it has evolved over the centuries and is expected to continue to do so in the coming future.
