The mysteries of the earth have fascinated the human race for thousands of years. Its restlessness has transformed landscapes, blackened skies, and buried cities. Our way of life is dependent on the geologic resources that we take from mines, quarries, and wells. Expanding our knowledge of our planet, and learning the best ways to use its resources, is critical to the welfare of our ever-expanding population. The dynamics of the earth are hard to quantify because what can be seen, and physically tested, is limited to the rocks on its surface or taken from drill holes in the crust —a very small part of the planet! The interpretation of what these rocks mean—how they relate to each other and how they compare to rocks seen forming today—and the use of new imaging techniques that can explore the subsurface give us our modern view of geology.
