About this ebook
Rocks, ice, and snow. That is all Dr. William Hammer and his crew can see when they look at the land around them on Earth’s coldest continent. But on top of a mountain, the scientists discover a 190-million-year-old fossil. It is the remains of the first dinosaur found on mainland Antarctica. Learn more about the hunt for fossils in Antarctica and what life might have been like there millions of years ago.
