Join veteran desert archaeologist Dr Mike Smith on his journey into the remote southern Simpson Desert on the search for signs of a lost world.
Mike delivered regular field reports from the Kallakoopah region, near Lake Eyre in South Australia from 26 June to 18 July 2007.
The expedition yielded ancient fossil remnants and the complete skeleton of an extinct bird.
There was also drama on the 23-day trip, with one injured expeditioner evacuated by helicopter and another disaster narrowly averted when stray camels stampeded the camp.
