`n the cover: Representation of a fullerene molecule with a noble as atom trapped
`inside. At the Permian-Triassic sedimentary boundary the noble gases helium a d argon
`have been found trapped inside fullerenes. They exhibit isotope ratios quite similar to
`those found in meterorites, suggesting that a fireball meteorite or asteroid exploded
`when it hit the Earth, causing major changes in the environment. (image copyright
