NBLCT will host, Jay Ague, Professor of Earth and Planetary Sciences at Yale University and Curator-in-Charge of Mineralogy and Meteoritics at the Yale Peabody Museum, will share his insights into the museum’s newly renovated and thoroughly reimagined mineral and meteorite galleries. Jay’s team oversees the scientifically and historically important collection of many tens of thousands of specimens from around the globe.
After discussing the history of the collections and the museum, Jay will acquaint us with the treasures in the new galleries including a sizable collection of Connecticut minerals, as well as Connecticut meteorites. The Yale Peabody Museum has been instrumental in saving part of our geological history and the face of our land.
