Experimental Musings

When something doesn’t directly impact us, many of us tend to spend very little time thinking about it. But often the impacts do hit closer to home than you may realize. This is true with mental health: you may not have a mental illness, but mental health does affect you.

Recent excavations raise some big questions about understanding our planet’s biological history. It's a great reminder that life on Earth may seem wild now, but it’s got a pretty wild past, too!

It began as a plan, as most projects do. But what’s happened since – four native tree and plant installation events with more than 60 volunteers and ongoing support from the community – is part of the ProtoPath’s evolution, and we can’t wait to see how it continues to develop!

Every now and then a discovery is made that challenges a previously held belief. A recent excavation site in Utah is shedding more light on how some dinosaurs may actually have been social creatures. 

Rosalind Franklin had an integral role in the discovery of DNA’s double-helix structure. Not only did her work help drive Watson and Crick toward their Nobel Prize-winning discoveries, but a special photograph of hers is quite possibly one of the most important photos ever taken.
