And how are scientists able to figure out what the Earth looked like during different periods of its vast history?

WHAT FOSSILS TELL THE HISTORY OF LIFE examines the ever-unfolding stories these fossils reveal about life on Earth. Dig in and learn how fossils were formed, and find out about some of the most important people and places in the field of paleontology.
