Description

This issue of Supernova is about all things big and small, fierce and fragile and weird and wonderful. Go back in time and imagine seeing a sloth the size of a house. Or a delicate flower that stems from a 100 million years ago. Turn the clock forward and learn how humankind has learnt to measure and adapt with the scientific method or how certain world leaders have completely lost their marbles. It seems so strange that all these things play out on the same small blue planet!

~ Candice (Supernova’s Editor)
