Orbital Studies

Orbital Studies is a literary science magazine, publishing writing, philosophy, and art in service of a more beautiful scientific culture. Orbital Studies invites you to slow down, perhaps sit in nature, and allow yourself to wonder.

In this issue: Ways Of Seeing The Living World 

Their inaugural issue features poets, scientists, philosophers, and artists exploring questions of the living world: What separates living matter from our creations? Meaning, purpose, and agency were once scientific taboos—Why are biologists now grappling with them? Why do we believe that the world might be knowable to us at all? Features include works and writing on Lichen, ingressing patterns, naturalism & nihilism, mirages, lanternflies, and beyond.
