 Science
& Technology Watch
(184 k)
This section brings our readers
up-to-date with the latest discoveries and inventions. Included here
are two pages (of four) from our Nov/Dec 2002 issue.
Feature:
Supersonic Speed For All
(92k)
Imagine flying from Toronto to Vancouver in
a mere 25 minutes. Okay, scramjet technology may be a long way from
commercial airline service, but researchers in Australia have proved
the technology isn’t just theoretical. (From our Jan/Feb 2003
issue.)
Feature:
Evolving Responses
(353 k)
Every issue of YES Mag contains two or
three feature stories. In this story, from our July/Aug 2003 issue,
our managing editor looks at global warming from a slightly different
perspective: how nature is responding.
Theme:
Welcome to Mars
(230 k)
About half of each issue
of YES Mag is an in-depth look at a particular topic. Past
topics have included The Solar System, Forensic Science, Paleontology,
Robotics, and Bats. Here are the first three pages of the Jan/Feb
2002 issue which featured Mars.
Theme:
Mapping Mars (140
k)
The Mars theme section (from our Jan/Feb 2002
issue) wouldn’t have been complete without a map. Now you'll
know where to go on your next visit.
Kids,
Try This At Home! (440
k)
Whenever possible, we like to
reinforce the information in the theme section with projects kids
can do at home. Here you will find the two projects included in our
Mar/Apr 2003 issue which featured Sweet Science. Trust us, these projects
are tasty!
Comic
Captions (112 k)
and Brain
Bumpers (176 k)
To help keep our readers thinking, and to give
them a chance to win a coveted YES Mag t-shirt, each issue
has two recurring contests. Here are the Comic Captions and Brain
Bumpers which appeared in our Jan/Feb 2003 and July/Aug 2003 issues,
respectively.
