Inner curiosity

On a crisp autumn morning, the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory opened its doors to the community for its annual Open House. It’s a day of free lectures, demonstrations, and workshops for adults and children. This year’s theme — Earth on Alert — highlighted work by Lamont-Doherty scientists on recent hazards: the Gulf oil spill, the Haitian and Chilean earthquakes, and the Iceland volcano.

This piece is a tribute to the kid-like curiosity inside all of us.
