1 Continents Adrift and Sea-Floors Spreading: The Revolution of Plate Tectonics
As the mercury inched below-54 °C, the sense of panic and fear suddenly became palpable. Faced with the uncertainty of a long polar march, a group of 12 native Greenland guides decided they had had enough. If the two European scientists wanted to continue their trek to a remote weather station in th...
