Direct from Ethiopia, the 3-million-year-old remains of the hominid known as "Lucy" are on display the Pacific Science Center in Seattle through March 8, 2009. The exhibit, "Lucy's Legacy: The Hidden Treasures of Ethiopia," are built around the oldest and most complete fossils of an erect-walking human ancestor ever discovered.
