But from one core, scientists cannot tell whether this is typical of rocks around earthquake faults.
A12 SCIENCE/HEALTH Postcards of Comet's Core Scientists said pictures taken from a spacecraft this weekend have produced the best look ever at the glowing heart of a comet.
Our findings suggest that core scientists play an important role as central conduits for the in-flow of knowledge from outside their companies, thereby stimulating innovation.
Instead, we found that these "core scientists" had a positive effect on the number of patent applications filed by their co-authors.
Since there's no direct way to measure time at the Earth's core, scientists used a measure called gravitational potential how much work it takes to move an object from one place to another to infer the time difference between Earth's core and its surface.
While there may be a small solid core, scientists aren't completely sure.
It's almost as if there's a stigma attached to it--you can't possibly be a hard-core scientist if you're worrying about your stock portfolio or if you're using the lab's Mac to day trade.
"But some hard-core scientists still brush the idea off as mushy or psychobabble, and laypeople think the idea is ridiculous".
"If I ever said to a group of hard-core scientists, 'Hey, I think STAP cells are real and I'm going to start working on that,' they would laugh at me," Nesti told me.
Many hard-core scientists who had entered medicine to avoid the draft did important work.
By examining tiny air bubbles trapped in ice cores, scientists have shown carbon dioxide levels were indeed lower at times in the past.
