On April 11, 2003 the Albuquerque Isotopes played the first professional

marked a continuation of a rich and varied tradition of professional baseball
in Albuquerque, one that dates back over 100 years.

others in the NASA archives. And there it would have remained, were it not for
environmental organisations and famine-relief organisations of the early
1980's. Its prominent depiction of Africa and Antarctica made it perfectly
suited as symbols for both causes. Posters started appearing pairing the photo
