Deep drilling

General
- diamondoid microsaws for fine hull tube cutting with shearing drive material liftup
- callenges of combined heat and pressure
- preservation of drill cores -- usage of structural elements
SciFi applications
- geoengineering: earthquake controlled tension release cables (& why its probably a bad idea). A very dense net of tension cables would be needed in critical zones replacing much of the lithospheres structure (that must be dumped -prefferably in a structurally preserved way - at a supersurface location). Controlled release of a sudden ride in tension could avoid earthquakes while simultaneously providing immense amounts of energy. But if this is not sufficiently undestood this unnatural slow relaxations might lead to very unpleasant consequences. [to investigate: how woud one handle shearing on a wavy fracture "plane"]
- disposal of radioactive waste into outer earth core (the well to hell). APM and nuclear technology
