A team of researchers has found evidence of a new layer to the planet sitting within the inner core. According to seismologists from The Australian National University (ANU), data gathered from seismic waves caused by earthquakes has shed new light on the deepest parts of the Earth's inner core. Earlier, it was thought the Earth's structure comprised four distinct layers, but the current findings confirm there is a fifth layer.
