Okay, we’re taking our first toe-dip into producing an online option for Space and Time. For now, it is a simple .pdf downloadable option, which can be either opened and read online or printed at home. Subscriptions are available for newcomers at half the cost of a regular print subscription, or $10.00. And anyone who is a current or new print subscriber will be given access to the online version at no extra charge.
More details will follow, including directions for ordering. I’m very curious to see the response to this new option, as it will inform the future of the magazine overall. My goal is to stay in print AND in cyberspace, but should a paper version become impossible to sustain, at least we’ll continue to exist in some fashion.
In the meantime, folks, please encourage anyone and everyone to either subscribe themselves or buy subscriptions as gifts!

Allowing online subscriptions is a wise decision.
