Enter this virtual museum environment and bring the geological world into your classroom with comprehensive information about rocks, minerals, and the geophysical forces that shape our planet. Learn how Earth evolved over billions of years and how it continues to develop and change to this day! You'll see the Earth from a different perspective as you see each rock and mineral sample classified according to its structure and properties with in-depth information about each specimen. Using dramatic software technology, students can create their own 3D volcano, witness transformation of the planetary surface in an accelerated timeline or even set off an earthquake and watch its seismic effect on the surrounding town! Photographs, audio, video and text all combine to provide a comprehensive geological reference source.
