    Although the official opening is on Friday evening, SciFest Africa kicks off its programme tomorrow (Wednesday 2 March). This year's theme is "A Matter of Time".

    Professor Steve Prevec
    How do geologists tell time?

    The Earth is 4.543 billion years old… but how do we know? Learn how geologists are
    able to determine the age of the Earth, rocks and fossils from the accumulation of
    sediments to radioactive minerals, and gain a new perspective on time.
