Hi list　　,

I had yesterday the chance of buying the September 1986 issue of National
Geographic, it has an article about meteorites "Intruders from Space" that
its very good, it has some awesome pictures that Ive never seen. Including
two photos of the famous Sylacauga fall, one of the bruice it made to Mrs.
Hodge and the other of the broken roof of the house. It also has some photos
of Nininger in his lasts months, at age 99. And has more photos and good
information about basic meteorites. It is interesting to see how scientints
from last decade managed to take information out of the meteorites with no
technology at all, when that was published there was no evidence of the
Chicxulub crater so they mention that a big crater must be hidden somewhere
in the Earth but has yet to be found. Isnt that amazing???

If some of you have the issue take a look at it and maybe you'll find
something interesting...as always in the National Geographic, I love that
magazine.

***Im collecting back issues of National Geographic about meteorites and
planets. If you now some past issue that has an article about it, can you
tell me the month and year so I can look for it here in Mexico. Pls help
with that I know some you might read past issues　　

Thanks a lot list
