There’s a very interested article posted today on CNN.com! It looks like scientists have discovered a nearly complete skeleton of Australopithecus afarensis (Lucy belongs to this species). It was actually discovered in 2000 but scientists have spent the past 6 years trying to remove the skeleton from sandstone. Very cool article!
