DIGITAL ISSUES NOW AVAILABLE!
Issue 18 - MARS: THE NEXT GIANT LEAP
"The time has come to expand our horizons, and the next obvious step is Mars. The universe is there. We can either stand back and watch it, or go out and live in it. To some of us, that's an easy choice." - Buzz Aldrin

Available in print or
digital formats.
Issue 17 - SCIENCE OF MORALITY
Charles Darwin described a world where animals ruthlessly compete to survive. Richard Dawkins showed that we're just vehicles for 'selfish genes'. Yet we humans - and even many animals - cooperate or even selflessly help each other. Science is now showing how the building blocks of morality could be hardwired into our very genes.

Issue 16 - WHAT'S WRONG WITH PHYSICS?
Superstrings, 26 dimensions, multiple universes, cosmic inflation – there's almost a new buzzword in physics every week. But could it all be wrong? This issue of Cosmos takes a close look at the state of play of physics, and puts our top theories of everything to the test.

digital formats.
Issue 15 - THE SCIENCE OF SEX
From bacterial recombination, to the complex mating rituals of higher mammals (not to mention humans), sex is an essential fact of all life. In this issue, Cosmos casts the illuminating gaze of science over a wide range of questions, such as the origins of sex, the difference between male and female brains, whether monogamy is natural, the spectrum of gender beyond male and female and much more.

digital formats.
Issue 14 - LIFE, THE UNIVERSE AND EVERYTHING

Life may be the ultimate enigma. How did it start? Is there intelligent life elsewhere in the universe? Why does the universe itself seem uncannily suited to life? In this issue of Cosmos we delve into these perplexing conundrums and reveal some startling new findings.

Also with this issue is LifeLab, an exclusive interactive DVD produced in association with Cosmos, the Australian Centre for Astrobiology at Macquarie University and NASA. With LifeLab you can look for the origins of life on Earth and explore Mars and the rest of the Solar System looking for traces of life.

Issue 13 - INSIDE THE MIND

The mysteries of the brain have puzzled humans since the dawn of civilisation. What is consciousness? Why does it exist? How do we make memories? In this special brain issue of Cosmos, we delve into the wonders of the mind.

We take you on an incredible photographic journey into an operating theatre as surgeons work to remove a brain aneurysm, catalogue the amazing abilities of a young blind boy who uses sonar navigation to find his way around objects, uncover the 1,500 year history of brain surgery, and recount the tale of Phineas Gage - a man who gained fame after surviving having a metal spike driven through his brain.
