Hint:

Walter Alvarez

Alfred Wegener never lived to see his ideas vindicated. On an expedition to Greenland in 1930, he [-1-] alone, on his 50th birthday, to check out a supply drop. He never returned. He was found a few days later, frozen to death on the ice. [---2---]

Einstein also failed to live long enough to see that he had backed the wrong horse. In fact, he died at Princeton, New Jersey, in 1955 before Charles Hapgood’s [-3-] of continental drift theories was even published.

The other principal player in the emergence of tectonics theory, Harry Hess, was also at Princeton at the time, and would spend the rest of his career there. [---4---]

As for geology itself, its cataclysms had only just begun, and it was young Alvarez who helped to start the process.
