  • Special Relativity: A Book
gollark: That's *probably* easier than somehow drilling to the mantle/core and then reacting the iron there with oxygen.
gollark: The problem is that either way you need a lot of stuff to react all the oxygen with, or to send it off into space somehow.
gollark: And apparently has a mass of 1e23 kg, so *easily* enough to react the entire atmosphere's oxygen with, if you can get some of it out.
gollark: So also according to Wikipedia, the core is 89% iron.
gollark: The crust is apparently 46% oxygen.
