We live on a beautiful planet. The story of how it was formed is the mystifying alchemy of observation, science, and philosophy called geology. Leaving a record marked by changes across the span of the cosmos and billions of years, Mother Nature and Father Time give us beautiful, humbling clues in our attempt to make sense of the world around us.
