Geology & Fossil History of Tennessee
The exhibition features geographic information about physical earth processes and the history of life on earth with a particular focus on Tennessee. Earth events worldwide are presented in the Earth Bulletin, a computer-linked high resolution audiovisual program from the American Museum of Natural History, New York, featuring earth science news, such as volcanoes, earthquakes, and climatic events (updated weekly) and current earth science research. Spectacular fossil specimens illustrate the biological history of Tennessee as seen in detailed dioramas, including the Gray fossil site. Dinosaur bones and eggs delight all, and a full-size mosasaur ‘swims’ overhead.
