16 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.

The idea of digital life after death is something science fiction has been exploring for ages.
Back in 2013,
a chilling episode of the hit show Black Mirror called Be Right Back followed a grieving woman who came to rely on an imperfect AI copy of her dead partner.
More recently,
the idea of digital copies of The Deceased even made it into a comedy with Amazon Prime's show Upload.
That shift from psychological horror to satire makes sense
