Sarah Scoles’s Biography

Read Full Bio →

I'm a freelance science writer, contributor to WIRED Science, and the author of the book MAKING CONTACT: JILL TARTER AND THE SEARCH FOR EXTRATERRESTRIAL INTELLIGENCE. I like books, bikes, trails, dogs, coffee, wormhole internet searches, windows, and the times when the light outside is really yellow.

More things, including a writing portfolio, live on my website at www.sarahscoles.com.

Rządy, dziennikarze i zwykli obserwatorzy mogą dziś zobaczyć, co dzieje się na świecie, niemal natychmiast po wydarzeniach – dzięki infrastrukturze znajdującej się w kosmosie.
