My article was pretty interesting, and government is doing something that has never happened before. The government is going to create a plan to drill 3.7 miles beneath the sea floor into the earths mantle. This will allow scientist to test different samples and could show a lot about evolution. No one has ever been this deep inside of the earth, and once the government drills into the mantel, they can test samples and learn about pre existing life. Groups of international scientists have been getting together and they first have to come up with a way to drill through 6.2 miles of solid rock before they can even begin drill to the mantle. This whole experiment will take place in the middle of the ocean. The bedrock is the thinnest in the oceans, so they want to drill there.
