Super-Powerful X-Ray Beam that Will Quest the Center of The Earth

"The above image shows the heating of a catalyst sample in an "in situ" cell at actual operating conditions. The catalyst is studied using time-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy. A new beamline at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility has a resolution of a few microseconds. ESRF" - Popsci

Now a days, everyone talks about visiting mars or sending out another satellite in space, but you rarely hear anyone speak about exploring the center of the Earth.  Yes that is the planet you and I both are currently on, to eliminate any confusion. What we think we know about the Earth may be barely enough.  But good news my friends! A newly revamped X-ray beam facility in Europe may be able to improve our knowledge of the Earth, and shed some light on what is going on at the center of our planet.

If you would like to learn more about amazing science! Hit the link and read up on the technology we hold today.  The world is an amazing place and the intellectual minds behind it are constantly building, creating and imagining, and that, is what makes this all possible.  So I urge you to unleash the potential we each and everyone of us have, we are capable of more than we "think."
