I was recently thinking about super deep drilling after coming across a very neat mini-documetary [0] self-filmed by a geophysicist around the work at the Kola superdeep borehole [1] in 1992. It is project I had heard about before but only in bullshit-passing articles and scrolling past brain rot youtube videos (seriously, search 'Kola superdeep borehole' on youtube and take note of how absolutely trash every other thumbnail appears concerning what in reality is just a normal scientific endeavour). So this video by David Smythe of the actual work there was wonderful and also a nice little nostalgic look at science and research as filmed by a VHS camcorder in that era. The computer equipment stuggles, etc... It left me wondering about new research in this area and surprised I had not heard of any other such projects recently, so this news in interesting.
