STM publisher Elsevier has announced the launch of REACH - Reviews in Human Space Exploration, a review journal that focuses on all aspects of human space exploration. The journal will cover comprehensive overviews of the science of human and robotic space exploration, life sciences research in space, and beneficial terrestrial applications that are derived from spaceflight. It is the official human space exploration review journal of the International Academy of Astronautics (IAA) and of the International Astronautical Federation (IAF).
REACH will educate readers from academia, industry, and government. Furthermore, special emphasis will be put on summarizing the most important recent developments and challenges and making them legible for a non-specialist audience.
The journal will be under the professional leadership of Editor-in-Chief Rupert Gerzer, Skoltech Space Center, Russia, and his Co-Editors representing established aerospace nations: Jeffrey Davies, NASA, USA; Peter Gräf, DLR, Germany; Yinghui Li, Chinese Astronaut Centre, China and Oleg Orlov, IMBP, Russia.
