The Cold War was a confrontation that took place during the second half of last century, which opposed two irreconcilable political and ideological positions: the Western capitalist bloc led by the United States and communist Eastern bloc, identifiable with the Soviet Union. Its name derives from the main feature this conflict: the almost complete absence of direct confrontation, as the nuclear potential that exists in this time of terror undermined the possibility of another war.
Despite this apparent immobility, which favored competition in the political, ideological, social, cultural, economic, technological, informative and above all military. The creation of more powerful nuclear weapons in history, as the Tsar bomb (4,800 times more powerful than Hiroshima), and the man on the moon are the most common examples of this competition offered.
However, there are some unique confrontations bounded to the success or usefulness have been ordered to bury the story. Among these dusty pages is a scientific exploration project, conducted by the USSR, which aimed to literally dig a hole into the center of the Earth.
Emulating the cartoon in his constant quest to reach China by the shortest route, in 1970 began drilling in the Kola Peninsula (yes, funny what a coincidence!), Northern Russia in the Murmansk Oblast. Initially planned to a depth of 15 kilometers, was able to reach 12 in 1984, far exceeding the previous record American little over 9.5 km. Fourteen years of work went down the drain when an accident buried the final 5 kilometers from the hole, forcing a restart the experiment from the level of 7 km. After five additional years of work, deepening in 1989 peaked at 12,262 meters mark, after which he suspended the depth when confronted with a technological limit. At this depth, the temperature was over 180 ° C, interfering with the process of lubrication and clearing of rock that had the bit used. This, coupled with political problems encountered by chance in the same year, definitely slowed progress. It should be noted that twelve kilometers, very little that appears to be, is almost the third of the width of the crust, so there's no silly.
In the process material was extracted more than 2,700 Ma old, a real treasure for the International Geological Society (Geological scientific treasure subsequently declared by UNESCO). During the process, scientists encountered several surprises, as the abundant presence of liquid water in the fissures between impermeable rock, and the high proportion of free hydrogen and heated to very high depths, contrasts with the classical theory of planet formation , indicating that this gas would have been lost almost entirely in the age of the world, given its low density.
right, billions of rubles were invested in this research and the results, despite their abundance, they found very practical destinations outside the army of geologists and geophysicists over almost thirty years drooled monthly listings data. The project was stopped in 89 and permanently closed in 2008, after almost two decades of laboratory maintenance of a 8.5 km deep (eye, no people, but a small space of five feet in diameter used for various Expecting.)
Internet, in its urgent search to misinform, undertook to rescue the project by the year 2002, when it circulated a somewhat exaggerated information on a similar project. The urban legend dictates that "somewhere in Russian Siberia", "near the North Pole," a plant whose exact location is classified, "after some time it had achieved the record depth of 15 km . At this stage of the study, what better way to lower a microphone "specially adapted". Well, the story says that doing so would have picked up sounds that could only be identified as moans and cries of suffering from of giant cameras that depth. Then, scientists invaded by terror, have detonated explosive charges along the tube, in order to seal the hell hole.
So apart from the world of fiction, no gates of hell at the moment. It remains to find that income where people red circle with horns and tail, with the typical smell of the sea of \u200b\u200bblood and brimstone and damnation ringing of bells in the background.

PD2: If he attacks them curious and want to see you have internet on the case, do not be fooled by pictures of a well that seems almost a kilometer in diameter. That is a diamond mine, and there are plenty in Russia. The real well is ten feet in his mouth, with two parallel service pipes and the main extraction shaft.
