Geologists at the University of California, Davis, could soon be making virtual field trips to the depths of the Earth, the interior of earthquake faults and perhaps the rocky plains of Mars as a result of a $1 million grant from the W.M. Keck Foundation of Los Angeles. The grant will be used to build and equip a room walled with projection screens to create the illusion of an immersive, three-dimensional environment. The facility, which is expected to be operating by mid-2004, has provisionally been named the Keck Center for Active Visualization in Earth Sciences.
