This undated artist rendering provided by the National Geographic Society shows the hadrosaur, nicknamed Dakota, as scientists believe it would have looked, based on their analysis of the fossil evidence so far. One of the most complete dinosaur mummies ever found is revealing secrets locked away for millions of years, bringing researchers as close as they will ever get to touching a live dinosaur. Society News Blog Comment: The National Geographic Society, headquartered in Washington, D.C. in the United States, calls itself "one of the largest non-profit scientific and educational institution in the world". Its interests include geography, archaeology and natural science, the promotion of environmental and historical conservation, and the study of world culture and history.
The National Geographic Magazine, later shortened to National Geographic, published its first issue nine months after the Society was founded as the Society's official journal, a benefit for joining the tax exempt National Geographic Society. The magazine has had for many years a trademarked yellow border around the edge of its cover. The motto of the society is: "To increase and diffuse geographic knowledge while promoting the conservation of the world's cultural, historical, and natural resources." Its present membership is 8.5 million strong. It's president since March 1998 is John M. Fahey. Gardiner Greene Hubbard was its founder president when it was first founded on January 13, 1888.
