I wish the best of luck to these nomads.
-Reader Comment, Washington Post article on camel herders hunting meteorites in the Sahara
The odds of being struck by a meteorite, 1:1,600,000. The odds of you finding one? Much better than that if you are a camel herder in Mauritania, the population density of its desert north subceeded only by Greenland and Pitcairn Island. And the odds of winning a powerball lottery? 1:292,000,000. So wish your best of luck to where it’s needed most, to those not herding camels in the Sahara.
