Culture

Journey into Chaco Canyon, where ancient people built monuments to the cosmos. Journey to Chichén Itzá, where the Maya built monuments to the sun.

For most of us, science arrives in our lives packaged neatly as fact. But how did it get that way?

Come with us to Chaco Canyon in northwestern New Mexico, which is rich with thousand-year-old artifacts of the ancient Pueblo culture and contains sites that appear to have been astronomical observatories.

Explore the ancient knowledge of the Maya, who built sophisticated monuments to the sun.

This special online-only edition of Exploring takes a closer look at the sweet lure of chocolate. We'll examine the fascinating -- and often misreported -- history of chocolate, follow the chocolate-making process, and take an online visit to a chocolate factory.

Join us as we crunch our way through everything from our San Francisco sourdough to Injera and Pugliese.
