Study microscopic and macroscopic organisms in greater detail as they are preserved in the fossil record, a natural time capsule etched in stone.

Other fossilized organic matter includes fecal matter from animals long past. Vertebrae and other skeletal remains of ancient or extinct creatures are easy to study in detail with these fossils.
