    On an expedition through 3.5 billion years of time, Dr. Robert Bakker (pictured) will tell the story of life on Earth-from the time life first appeared in toxic ponds to the age of dinosaurs and on to the dawn of man.

    Learn about the armored, antlered, mummified, boomerang-headed, fin-backed, saber-toothed, fanged and flying cast of characters featured in the new HMNS Hall of Paleontology.

    Bakker will entertain adults and kids with his stories and live artwork of these ancient creatures.
