You think you know about time, but then there’s deep time. Human history is but a blink compared to the history of the life that came before us. Come along as we travel to Boise, Idaho and visit scientists studying the Cambrian time period – when life lived exclusively in the ocean and when what is now the Rocky Mountains would have been a tropical sea. No plane ticket or time machine needed for this journey; join us virtually to learn about geology, prehistoric Earth, and so much more!
