Available in Barnes & Noble stores across the US now. I like the large, full color format; I hope it survives unlike Space World and Spaceflight News. |

I read a copy yesterday, and was impressed. A nice mix of human and unmanned space flight, and astronomy. The problem with space magazines in general is that they are so quickly out of date in an internet age (as many space societies are finding, to their loss). I was impressed with how hot off the press many of the news stories were in this magazine. |

The only thing on a magazine like that as far as I'm concerned is that I'm not that big a fan of astronomy. I'd love to read about the hardware and news of manned space flight, but a lot of the other content of the magazine probably wouldn't appeal to me all that much from what I could tell. quote:

Not all of them. The local one near me doesn't have it. B&N is one of the better chains for getting UK/based magazines to us in the colonies. I used to be the cartoonist for a history-related magazine printed in the UK and they claimed it was at all B&N stores, when I knew for sure it wasn't. |
