A post I made for the Carlsbad Caverns National Park Facebook page:
“The ultimate aim of all science... to penetrate the unknown. We know less about our earth than about the stars and outer space. The greatest mystery is right here under our feet,” said the geologist-explorer Oliver Lindenbrook (James Mason) in the 1959 fantasy film Journey to the Center of the Earth, which was based on the 1864 novel by Jules Verne, and filmed in Carlsbad Cavern.
These words still ring true, as cavers continue to discover hitherto-unknown chambers and tunnels, in Carlsbad Caverns National Park and all over the world!
