Features

32 Dust to Dust: The Interstellar Origin of Life (Cover Story)
Conservative scientists tend to shy away from the idea that extraterrestrial life has anything to do with our own life on Earth, and the establishment fences the subject with demands for extraordinary levels of evidence, while ignoring data that is already to hand. But alien life is everywhere in the Cosmos - even on the Earth - if we know how to spot it, says Professor Chandra Wickramasinghe

38 The Day the Earth Stood Still
Galileo's battle against the Church over the heliocentric view of the Solar System is usually seen as a black-and-white struggle between science and superstition. But, suggest Lynn Picknett and Clive Prince, there was more to it than that - including a secret bid to bring in a Hermetic New Age...

44 Weaving the World's End
While the world tuned in for the recent Royal Wedding, few of the millions watching knew anything of the enigmatic artwork at the heart of Westminster Abbey that reveals the date of Doomsday. Ruth Clydesdale uncovers the story of England's Cosmati pavement.
