National Geographic – Why We Explore – 01/13

In this issue:

This month, a special issue celebrates the 125th anniversary of the National Geographic Society on Jan.
13. The issue, themed “The New Age of Exploration,” focuses on risk takers and new frontiers. For the
first time in the magazine’s history, the issue features five covers, representing different extremes of
exploration: the wildest, the smallest, the highest, the deepest and the farthest.

A photo portfolio looks at different moments of exploration; restless genes and the compulsion in some to see what
lies beyond are explored; various risk takers are profiled; the viability of humans traveling to the stars is discussed;
the diversity of Ecuador’s Yasuní National Park, as it faces threat from oil development, is documented; a scientific
expedition to Antarctica in 1912 is recalled; and the microscopic world of microbes is examined.
