Issue #47 - October 2012

Our October issue is ON SALE FROM SEPTEMBER 26, and is about three of the greatest things in science and tech: guns, robots and boats! It's a future of defence special, where we look at stealth destroyers, smart guns and haptic battlefield robots. 

We also acknowledge ten of the finest minds from the US scientific community in our annual Brilliant 10, and then follow that up with eight more brilliant young Aussies who are finalists in the John Dyson Awards.

Inventions, big science, guns, robots, sweet diagrams of how one stealth ship could conquer an entire country (well, almost), plus a gallery of human-powered flying machine designs and a roundup of laser-equipped tools! What more could you want?

What's that? You want a tesla cannon as well? Man... well, okay, you can have that too.
