About the Substack

Minerals interact with everything โ€” environments, living things, ancient oceans, other worlds. I'm a museum curator and scientist who writes about what those interactions reveal.

About Aaron Celestian, PhD

I'm Curator of Mineral Sciences at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles. I study how minerals interact with environments and living things โ€” and apply that to contamination, disease, and the search for life beyond Earth.
