Are We Ready To be Spaced Out?

It’s happening. Everything we’re doing Out There seems to have one objective: to boldly go where not many men have gone before...
and check out whether many men can live there!
What are your thoughts on living someplace other than Earth? Have you ever thought about what would be required from our bodies, from our minds, from our diets? I hadn’t really thought about it – till I read Surviving Space, our cover story this issue. And it really made me wonder...
Our Knowledge Community gave us some interesting cues in what they would take to Mars if they were to be space colonists. Take a look. We have other great stories this issue too: There are the robots who learn; how far will they go? There are driverless cars;
are you ready to turn the steering wheel over to them? All this social media; is it doing the opposite of what it was conceived for?
That King Arthur; did he really exist?

Enough with the questions! We have beautiful photographs of the Rann of Kutch in Gujarat, and a celebration of Harry Potter being 20 magical years in our lives...
Because, when it comes down to it, some of us are certainly not going to be on the first ship to Mars, or the Moon... and hey, that’s okay! There’s so much, anyway, to celebrate here on Earth!
