The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine: Project Mohole

Curated by ACT

Project Mohole was "the earth sciences' answer to the space program," a project to gain information about the Earth by drilling a hole through the Earth's crust to the Mohorovicic Discontinuity (Moho). This website gives a history of the project from its beginning, original photos from the project, first-hand accounts, and links to many additional resources, e.g., media coverages and academic papers.
