Contains: The Navajo Nation looks ahead -- Mounds: Riddles from the Indian past -- Those popular pandas -- Israel-The Seventh Day -- Apollo 16 brings us visions from space -- Probing the deep Reef's hidden realm. The outer edges of clifflike Atlantic reefs from the Bahamas to Belize harbor a fairyland of interrelated creatures. Since the Six- Day War of 1967, no rest or peace has come to Israel, where her own people are divided between Western and Oriental Jew, Orthodox tradition and secular practices. The mission returns with startling views of Earth, enormous amounts of data, and new questions about the universe. Neglected and poverty- stricken, the largest Indian nation in the U. S. seeks to control its destiny on a reservation reaping a windfall from mineral leases. Early American Indians built towns, raised mounds that rivaled Mexico’s pyramids, and traded along routes from the Great Lakes to the Gulf Coast. The director of the National Zoo in Washington, D. C. , describes the giant panda pair presented to the U. S. by China following President Richard M. Nixon’s historic visit. 20111229. Navajo Nation. Mounds: Indian Past. Pandas.
