Speaker: Christopher Graney
Abstract: Once upon a time we had a very different idea about how the Earth was structured than we do today. It took Christopher Columbus to upset that idea. His encountering the Americas both paved the way for Copernicus to envision an Earth that turned, and removed a little supernatural from the world.
