These scientists, who are pioneers in radiocarbon and atmospheric research, wanted to understand how old certain objects are. They collected samples of objects like wood and bones and used a special technique called radiocarbon dating to figure out how long ago these objects were made. By studying the amount of a special type of carbon in the samples, they were able to determine their age. This helps us learn more about the history of the objects and the world around us.
