Science Buddies: Speleology: Counting Formations in a Local Cave

Curated by ACT

In the past caves have been used for shelter, for religious purposes, and for burial sites. They were even used for food storage before refrigeration, because they are cool and have constant high humidity. Get ready for an adventure as you visit a local cave and learn how they are formed, and how they change as you go deeper inside them.
