Science Nonfiction Book Group “Archaeology from Space” – Zoom/Online

October 17, 2023 @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm

Booklovers come together to explore science and history topics in-depth.

We will discuss “Archaeology from Space: How the Future Shapes Our Past,” by Sara Parcak.

Parcak has worked in twelve countries and four continents, using multispectral and high-resolution satellite imagery to identify thousands of previously unknown settlements, roads, fortresses, palaces, tombs, and even potential pyramids. From there, her stories take us back in time and across borders, into the day-to-day lives of ancient humans whose traits and genes we share. And she shows us that if we heed the lessons of the past, we can shape a vibrant future.

All are welcome. We currently gather on Zoom. Contact us for the meeting link.
