TO THE END OF THE EARTH at AMNH is Cancelled

American Museum of Natural History cancels "The End of the Earth and Beyond" that was scheduled for Friday, June 4 at 7pm in the LeFrak Theater. 

At the dawn of the last century two intrepid explorers-Norwegian Roald Amundsen and British Royal Navy Captain Robert Falcon Scott-famously competed to be the first to reach the South Pole. Join ABC's Bill Ritter as he moderates a panel featuring NASA Planetary Scientist Chris McKay, geologist and Martian meteorite expert Ralph P. Harvey, and other leading Antarctic scientists to explore how, 100 years after those historic journeys, this unique continent still challenges science and exploration. Learn about the uncharted caverns beneath floating ice shelves, the Mars-like dry valleys nestled in the Transantarctic Mountains, and the tenacious life forms inhabiting a land once thought to be uninhabitable.

This program is a collaboration with the World Science Festival to celebrate the opening of the new Museum exhibition Race to the End of the Earth.
