As you go down, it just goes from gas through liquid to solid gradually without any clear boundaries. If you were to "land" there, you'd just sink down until you reached the depth with the same density as your vehicle and stay there. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] mathemachristian@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 year ago (1 child) oh wow thats really cool thanks! permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] gandalf_der_12te@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 year ago it's not so cool for the spaceships that attempt to land there as they'd be squashed to death, presumably, but yeah, from a scientific point of view, it's cool :D (not really since it's rather hot inside) permalink fedilink source parent
