Description: Smithsonian is the official journal published by the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. It specializes in such topics as history, science, arts, and nature. The first issue was published in 1970. The 84-page March 2024 issues' cover story is: Up From the Depths - Eighty years after a U.S. bomber pilot was shot down over the Pacific archipelago of Palau during a combat mission against the Japanese, his remains-long thought unrecoverable-may at last be coming home. Other featured articles include: The Gospel Truth - The righteous cry "Ain't I a woman?" has long defined the legacy of Sojourner Truth. But there's so much more to the real story of the civil rights activist, who most likely never said her best-known line. Making an Impression - Off the coast of East Africa, a population of critically endangered-and winsome-dugongs, or sea cows, are getting a helping hand from new technology that can see where they've been. The Wilderness Cure - In national forests throughout the Mountain West, ecologists are bulldozing thousands of miles of old access roads in an effort to protect wildlife and regenerate the land. The Art of the Scam - How a homicide cop, a rock star and a globe-spanning team of fraud investigators exposed a crime ring that ripped off an iconic Indigenous artist to the tune of $100 million.
