Evidence for the decay of extinct Pu 244 and I 129 has been found in the Kapoeta howardite. Accurate estimates of the amount of Xe 136 (10.6 ± 1.3 × 10 -12 cm 3 / g ) from Pu 244 fission decay and of the Xe 129 (4.1 ± 0.6 × 10 -12 cm 3 / g ) from I 129 beta decay are presented. The fission xenon yield in Kapoeta is Xe 131 : Xe 132 : Xe 134 : Xe 136 = 26 ± 3:88 ± 4:91 ± 5: 100, in agreement with yields previously reported by other workers on other meteorites.
