Dinosaur CSI


Dinosaur CSI? Watch “Secrets of the Dinosaur Mummy” this Sunday, Sept. 14, at 9 PM on the Discovery Channel for a preview of a November 7 Illuminations lecture in MCC’s LeRoy V. Good Library.  Discovery introduces Leonardo, a 77-million-year-old short-crested, duck-billed dinosaur (Brachylophosaurus canadensis), the “best-preserved fossil in the world” according to the Guinness Book of World Records.

Steve Mango directs the Leonardo Project, in which a team of experts from Carestream Health has used a state-of-the-art computed radiography system to produce detailed images of Leonardo, including the dinosaur’s stomach and last meal. Steve will speak in the MCC Libraries’ Illuminations lecture series on the 4th floor of the LeRoy V. Good Library on the Brighton Campus during College Hour on Friday, November 7. Watch the Discovery Channel special this Sunday and mark November 7 on your calendar so you can see Steve Mango in person.
