Atlas of Action Potentials
The dream of human life leaving the boundaries of the planet Earth is certainly not new. The Greek novelist and satirist Lucian of Samosata* already imagined a hectic journey to the moon in the second century, describing with creativity and humour how life up there can be different from life on Earth. The spectacular technological advancement in the last century allowed humanity to move from fiction to reality by eventually setting foot on the moon in 1969. But it was not the death of imagination.
Thousands of stories have since continued to take inspiration from life to look at it through the magnifying lens of fiction. AofAP is the place where the influx of research findings generated in previous systems propagate and finally connect. It is where the accuracy of science finally merges with the ingenuity of narration in a creative synthesis. Through thematic studies, fiction stories, and guides, we want to continue the work of exploration with unreasonable scenarios, novelty, and, of course, humour. And who knows, one scenario may come true in the near future.*Lucian of Samosata — A True Story
FORMATS
This collection of fiction stories showcases the intersection of science and imagination. Whether contemplating the origins of life on Earth or envisioning the technological wonders of tomorrow, each narrative invites our readers to ponder the awe-inspiring possibilities that science, nature, and space hold.
Thematic studies are thought to take a deep look into the historical journeys that made scientific discoveries possible. The collection is divided into various sections, each dedicated to a specific branch of science. We aim to encounter the pivotal moments and brilliant minds contributing to humanity’s ever-expanding knowledge.
Antipodes is the quarterly NeurAstra journal that gathers information and findings from all the SYSTEMS and delivers them through engaging articles. Our first issue will be shared at the end of November 2024.
This collection is inspired by our Cassini Tours. It proposes a written version of the unique itineraries to explore and places to discover around us.
These are short manuals prepared for our Associate Programme members to give researchers tips on conducting efficient research and managing knowledge at different scales.
These notebooks are designed for our ATNS project as a field diary and small guide to conduct research in the field and keep track of our individual experiences.
