WOW! 😮 We can't believe
#EarthScienceWeek is over already!!

#ESW2025 wouldn't have been the amazing time that it was without all of our #partners and #sponsors - THANK YOU! 👏

Visit earthsciweek.org/support/ to see the complete list of all of our amazing supporters!

#EarthScienceWeek2025 #ThankYou

And just like that, #EarthScienceWeek2025 comes to a close! 🌎🫶

We loved seeing all of your celebrations & educational moments - thanks for sharing the #EarthScience love with us!

We’ll see you for #EarthScienceWeek2026 (10/11-10/17), but in the meantime, every week can be #EarthScienceWeek 😉

Archaeologists all have two things in common:

1. They have a great fashion sense 🤠
2. They do NOT study dinosaurs 🦖

Today we’re celebrating #GeoscienceForEveryoneDay! 🪨⛏️🌍🌋

Every person deserves access to #geoscience knowledge no matter their background!

Get outside there and spread the word about our planet!

#EarthScienceWeek #EarthScienceWeek2025 #ESW2025 #Education #Accessibility #EarthScience #Science

One of the most essential skills a #geoscientist can have is mapping! 🗺️🧭

To learn about the techniques & benefits of geologic mapping and modeling, join the #EarthScienceWeek webinar TOMORROW!

Fossil Trails USA will focus on our shared US fossil heritage, with former Parks paleontology professionals joining to chat with Matt & Max!

The Fossil Finders will include guests joining Danny to talk about the joys and challenges of paleontology fieldwork all over the world!

Artwork depicts the small, three-toed horse Miohippus annectens, the two-horned, early rhino Diceratherium annectens, the small, lemur-like primate Ekgmowechashala zancanellai, specialized for eating soft fruits and insects, the false sabertoothed cat, Nimravus brahcyops, and the small “bone crushing” raccoon-like canid Cynarctoides.

This year’s National Fossil Day focus is on the John Day Fossil Beds National Monument, specifically, the 29-million-year-old Oligocene assemblage of the Turtle Cove Member of the John Day Formation.

Whoa hey! That’s us!! Super excited to be a part of this 🙌

We're excited to announce two new bi-weekly livestream programs coming soon from SVP! Fossil Trails USA will debut on October 21 on our Instagram channel. The Fossil Finders will debut on October 29 as a collaborative program with Paleontologizing on Twitch!

This horse from the desert DOES have a name–Equus Scotti 🐎 🏜️

This #IceAge #fossil horse from Tule Springs Fossil Beds National Monument lived during a time when Nevada was much cooler and wetter than it is now.
