Students on a planetary science field trip took a detour into the Petrified Forest National Park to get an upclose view of petrified logs that were formed close to 200 million years ago. Led by Professor Mark Richardson, this Ge11c and Ge103 field trip to northern Arizona allowed observation of several Earth analogues of important solar system processes. April 2003.
