Very, very silly sci-fi picture in which an intrepid group of scientists (magmanauts?) tunnel towards the earth’s core. Why? Because the earth’s core has stopped rotating and our magnetic field is weakening, causing the earth to be bombarded by deadly radiation from space. Our “magmanauts” build a drilling machine (a bit like a more sophisticated version of The Mole in Thunderbirds) out of Unobtanium – I’m not making this up – so they can travel to the core, detonate a number of thermonuclear devices and start the earth’s core rotating again.
It’s complete hokum, of course, and stretches the limits of credulity and credibility, but enjoyable enough.
