20 分钟Hi, I'm Clara Moskowitz, Senior Editor for Space and Physics at Scientific American.
Like many kids, I once dreamed of becoming an astronaut.
While I never made it to space, my work at Scientific American has given me the next best thing,
exploring the cosmos through stories and sharing its wonders with science lovers like you.
When I research a story, I immerse myself in the reporting to bring you an exciting and accurate account.
Over the years, I've covered breathtaking rocket launches,
visited one of the world's highest altitude telescopes in Chile, and even trained for suborbital spaceflight.
Space is vast, beautiful, and full of the unexpected.
Taking a moment to look beyond our daily routines and reflect on its mysteries can be a powerful escape.
Join me on this journey of discovery.

For Scientific American Science Quickly, I'm Rachel Feldman.
It goes without saying that a lot has changed at Scientific American since our first issue came out in 1845.
But the magazine, and the world of science journalism in general,
also looks radically different today than it did in, say, 1990.
That's when today's guest first started working at siam.
Until his retirement earlier this month,
Gary Sticks served as Scientific American's senior editor of Mind and Brain Topics.
Given that Gary worked at siam longer than I've been alive,
we thought it would be cool to pick his brain about how his coverage areas of technology and neuroscience have evolved over the last 35 years.
