SCIENCE MAGAZINE: The latest issue features ‘Return of The Herd’ – Ecosystem effects of migrating bison.
Bison move through Yellowstone’s Lamar Valley at sunrise. Their movements and grazing accelerate the nitrogen cycle, increasing the annual nutrition that plants provide to herbivores. After decades of recovery, bison now add heterogeneity that sustains soil nutrient storage and plant productivity while allowing plant communities to become more diverse, highlighting the importance of restoring native grazers in large numbers and with freedom to move.

Space and society
In the latest edition of our “Voices” section, we ask five experts – from scientists to philosophers – how to protect space for the benefit of all of humanity.
“When people hear the term ‘space technology’, they tend to picture rocket launches, or maybe missions to the Moon … Other types of space activity with strong social impact tend to get less attention”
The satellite war
We speak to security expert Mark Hilborne about space warfare – and how it could be the deciding factor in the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
“The public doesn’t understand how much we rely on space as a domain of warfare”
Sexism in space
When Nasa prepared a message to aliens with the Pioneer probes in the 1970s, sexism skewed how they represented humankind. Within the next decade, we may have another chance to send a message deep into space – and this time, we must do better, writes Jess Thomson.
“Only five objects we have crafted here on Earth are now drifting towards infinity, and four of them tell a lie about half of humankind”
