Lucy Exhibition Makes Scientists Cringe

Tuesday, August 28, 2007

On Friday a controversial new exhibition opens at the Houston Museum of Natural History. For the first time in decades, the public can see the fossilized remains of the three million year old hominid known as Lucy. The last time Lucy was seen in the United States was in Cleveland. A local scientist, who knows the bones well, wishes they would have stayed home.
