Here is a wide-ranging adventure in becoming a citizen scientist by an award-winning science writer. Hannibal traces today’s tech-enabled citizen science movement to its roots: the centuries-long tradition of amateur observation by writers and naturalists.
The Center supported Hannibal's reporting and writing during a Western Enterprise Media Fellowship in 2014-15.
