Analog Science Fiction and Fact magazine
Analog Science Fiction and Fact magazine features modern science fiction, science fact and fantasy stories and book reviews. The pages of this magazine have been home to many of science fiction's foremost writers and stories. Isaac Asimov, Robert A. Heinlein, Poul Anderson, Spider Robinson, Lois McMaster Bujold, and Michael F. Flynn are just a few of the prominent names which have often appeared in Analog, and it has a long tradition of discovering and cultivating new talent. Each issue mixes fascinating stories about real people in potentially real futures (some terrifying, some exhilarating, some both), fact articles and columns about real trends in science and society, reviews of new books, and an ongoing dialog with in the letter column. Editor Stanley Schmidt, who is both a physicist and a science fiction writer, sees to it that the underlying philosophy remains the same: solidly entertaining stories exploring solidly thought-out speculative ideas. But the ideas, and consequently the stories, are always new.
"I've been a subscriber for 60 years, and have enjoyed it. There's been a few times when the editorial choices have been pretty badly written, but in 2025 they have published a lot of very good stories. Unfortunately, like most media these days, copy editing has become almost none existent."

"I have found Analog to be most helpful. Thought provoking stories in the interest of our survival as a people, real people in hard situations and circumstances. Highly recommended."
