Abstract

The content and format of this report differ from previous reports of the Commission. Limits of space, the absence of draft reports, and the long interval between preparation and publication have had their influence in the past; the present changes were motivated by the General Secretary. He has argued convincingly that critical reviews are of much greater value than reports that are primarily bibliographic. To achieve this goal, the subject matter has been divided into six topics, each assigned to a particular author. The reports of the Meteorite Committee and the Cosmic Dust Committee follow. The President has acted as editor and assumes responsibility for any omissions. The various authors thank those members who responded to the request for information and suggestions.
