Hi, I'm Clara Moskowitz, Senior Editor for Space and Physics at Scientific American.
Like many kids, I once dreamed of becoming an astronaut.
While I never made it to space, my work at Scientific American has given me the next best thing,
exploring the cosmos through stories and sharing its wonders with science lovers like you.
When I research a story, I immerse myself in the reporting to bring you an exciting and accurate account.
Over the years, I've covered breathtaking rocket launches,
visited one of the world's highest altitude telescopes in Chile, and even trained for suborbital spaceflight.
I love interviewing scientists who are exploring the mysteries of space.
If you'd like to learn about the secrets of dark matter directly from an expert,
join me on April 9th for a live conversation with theoretical physicist Catherine Zurich.

beautiful cosmos.
For Scientific American Science Quickly, I'm Rachel Feldman.
Just a heads up before we dive in, today's episode is about human sexuality.
We talk about sex, sometimes using slang terms, but without any profanity.
I'd probably give this episode like a PG-13 rating.
So if you usually listen with kids,
maybe give this one a solo trial run just to make sure you're comfortable with the questions it might raise.
And if you just really don't like hearing people talk about sex, then this episode probably isn't for you.
No hard feelings, we'll see you on Friday.
