New Issue of Space Lifestyle Magazine Now Online
Written by Nancy Atkinson
Have you heard about Space Lifestyle Magazine? Its a digital magazine, with a full color layout just like a print magazine, but its all online. It's also free. SLM has feature articles about all aspects of space — NewSpace, NASA, military, science and astronomy — but mostly it's about the people that make the space sector tick. The latest issue was just released yesterday, and it includes a bang-up article written by UT's Ian O'Neill about SpaceX. Ian actually toured the SpaceX facility and took some great pictures and wrote a very comprehensive article about SpaceX's recent successful launch to orbit. There's also an article about DIRECT 2.0, the alternative launch system that some NASA engineers think is better than Ares, a feature on possible weddings in space, and much more. I also do a little work for the magazine (I'm the editor-in-chief) and wrote an election preview article. I hope you'll check it out, and let us know what you think!

The "real" cover of the magazine has the correct spelling (you'll see that if you go take a look at the magazine!)

I find it fiddly to navigate and skimpy on content.
Universe Today gives me more every day of the year, also free, a lot more up-to-date, in a cool, easy to navigate Web interface with lots of references and links to sources.

You can also change the settings on the "Settings" tab on the top to make the magazine fit horizontally, vertically or to make it as big as you want.

I liked the articles a lot but really the navigation is annoying and you should have something like a bar on the side so that you can skip to a certain page quickly
