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 February 2024 issue of this magazine is available and as always, it does not disappoint. The cover story is titled: The Glass Age - Over the thousands of years since humans started making glass, it's become ubiquitous and essential. Today's scientists are taking the material to a whole new level, creating glass that can bounce, bend, and become the largest telescope mirrors on Earth. Some of the featured articles include: Where the Forest Springs Eternal - Seasonal rains create vibrant oases. Bringing Them Home - For a medical team helping severely ill children, priority one is time wit family. Borneo's Wild Green Heart - In a remote Indonesian national park, fauna and flora thrive. CONTENTS PROOFA Real Bug's Life - "The smaller they are, the more hidden and interesting their world is to me," says a Bulgarian photographer about the creatures that attract his focus. EXPLORETHE BIG IDEA - For the Next Pandemic - COVID-19 has taken a terrible toll, but we can learn from its lessons. FIELD NOTES - Journey to Probe the Planet's Future - In Greenland an epic ascent puts climber Alex Honnold to the test-and aids science.ALSO - A Whale's Tale & Bricks for the Birds BREAKTHROUGH - Listen to an Eclipse - Thanks to a new device you don't have to see the celestial event to experience its wonder. INNOVATOR - Fernando Trujillo - The Colombian marine biologist is a passionate protector of the Amazon's river dolphins. On the Cover - At the Corning company in upstate New York, a sheet of glass curls like a piece of paper, one of many innovations being made by researchers. 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 as well as other magazines covering various subjects. If you are looking for a specific issue, please let me know. I supply shipping discounts to multiple purchases. Due to changes in USPS policy and a recent postage rate increase, I have had to raise my shipping costs.
