Next Issue

NOVEMBER/DECEMBER ISSUE

We may be talking about what’s coming up in the wintery final issue of the year, but summer is still a few weeks away as I write this at the end of May. Luckily, the stories next issue are great, whenever you read them!

Our lead story has an unusual contest in an even more unusual place, when a human is enlisted to help some familiar aliens learn how to race sailboats in “The Far Uncharted Ocean,” by Auston Habershaw.

Our primary nonfiction piece in the issue is part fact article, part speculative thought-exercise, in David S. Lindsay’s “Interstellar Paranoia.”

We also have the final installment of Shane Tourtellotte’s history of an alien space program (started in “The Malady,” November/December, 2021): “The Outsiders”—all will be revealed! And of course we have much more in store, from Sean McMullen, Kelsey Hutton, Matt McHugh, Jerry Oltion, and others, plus all our regular columns and features.

Look for our November/December 2024 issue on sale at newsstands on October 15, 2024. Or subscribe to Analog Science Fiction and Fact in print or in a wide variety of digital formats.
