Oh shucks...I have access to some online journals, but Science is out of my reach. I have tried mostly every trick in my book to locate a copy of that file, but still came up short. Living 90+ miles from the nearest library that is likely to have a subscription is one of the problems I face while living on the edge of civilization. I so hoped I would be able to read it without a 12 month wait.
Oh well. I guess a drive to a large city is in my future. The water stuff has grabbed everyone's attention, but the new calibration point for the recent cratering rate is also noteworthy. -------------------- ...Tom

You can access most content older than 12 months (including Malin & Edgetts paper) for free, but you have to register as a user first. Details at: http://www.sciencemag.org/about/access.dtl tty |

Interestingly, though, the PDF version of this particular paper wasn't available for several days last week on the Science website, though the full text HTML version was. I haven't checked since then to see if the problem was fixed. Here is another site (scroll down to the bottom of the page) that has the PDF version of the Malin and Edgett paper, as well as a rare PDF version of the accompanying Perspectives piece by Ken Tanaka. |
