Description: National Geographic is a popular American monthly magazine published by National Geographic Partners. Known for its photojournalism, it is one of the most widely read magazines of all time. It was founded in 1888. The 136-page March 2021 issue of this magazine is available and as always, it does not disappoint! The cover story is titled: Our Obsession With Mars Mission - Since sky-watchers in the third millennium B.C. described it as a "wandering star," Mars has fascinated people on Earth. It so intrigues us that by this month, 11 spacecraft and rovers are expected to be on or near the red planet. Other featured articles include: Imprisoned While Innocent - Thanks to scrutiny of the actions of prosecutors, and police, as well as advances in DNA analysis and other sorts of forensic testing, 182 people have been found innocent and exonerated from death row since 1972. A line in the Mountains - The story behind boundaries on the world's highest battlefield. Greyhound Racing - Critics of the dogs' treatment spur the end of tracks, race betting. PROOF The 'Train Ladies' of Ukraine - A tradition as old as rail travel in Ukraine, these safety signal officers work in tiny houses at rail crossings, and help keep tings on track. EXPLORE THE BIG IDEA - Natural Disasters? - Maybe climate change harms should be called what they are: man-made natural disasters. DECODER - Life After Fire - Ecosystem engineers, black-backed woodpeckers are built for life amid partially burned trees.ALSOAncient AmphibianPlants in DisguiseMoonlit Line Walk DISCOVERY - From Lethal Trap to Artful Treasure - Snares that once killed Uganda's wildlife now support communities. ATLAS - Setting Rivers Free - Human influences have negatively affected the flows of most of Earth's 10 longest rivers.ALSO - Interpreting History On the Cover - We've been fascinated for millennia by Mars, seen here in images taken by (from top) the European Space Agency's Mars Express, and the Viking Orbiter 1. This magazine has been read but is in fantastic shape. If you were to purchase a back issue through the National Geographic Society, it would cost $7.00 with U.S. delivery. I have a number of back issues of National Geographic from various years. If you are looking for a specific issue, please let me know. I apply shipping discounts to multiple purchases.
