Science in SF – Articles for Amazing Stories

In addition to astrophysics and space exploration, I do also write articles about another of my favourite subjects, science in science-fiction, on this blog and elsewhere.

The ones listed below have appeared in summer 2014 on Amazing Stories.

Tatooine in Real Space –  July 7, 2014

For people who don’t know about it, this magazine was the first one uniquely devoted to SF, back in 1926. It was launched by Hugo Gernsback (the one who gave his name to the Hugo Awards, just to be clear) and, after a long publication history (and changing many times editors), it now a blog/ezine for SF lovers, directed by Steve Davidson. Worth having a look.
