Abstract

This article from Discover magazine includes three letters from readers responding to previous articles. The first letter requests an image of a moon rock mentioned in an article about NASA-collected moon rocks. The editors respond by providing an image and additional information about the rock. The second letter points out the omission of information about Neanderthal DNA in a cover story about Neanderthals. The editor acknowledges the oversight and promises to cover the topic in a future issue. The third letter questions why the name of the director of curatorial affairs at the First Americans Museum was not capitalized in an article about museums. The editors explain that it was not a typo, but rather the director's preference to have her name written in lowercase as a form of objection to colonialist language hierarchy.
