And, although volcanic eruptions demonstrated that at least part of the interior of the Earth was hot enough to melt rocks, temperatures within the Earth and the existence of radioactivity were unknown.
Jules Verne’s book, A Journey to the Center of the Earth (1864, 272 pages; originally published in France as Voyage au Centre de la Terre), capitalized on this interest in the Earth and in adventure with an exciting science fiction story that is still popular today.
By the late 1800’s, observations of temperature in mines and drill holes had demonstrated that temperature within the Earth increased with depth, and thus it is possible that the Earth’s interior is very hot.
