The editorial mission is to enlighten the Forbes audience about science, in terms of both pure science news and the intersection of science and business, whether that’s research-oriented startups or interesting science coming from the R&D facilities of major universities. Trending Topics: • Space: Forbes readers are interested in general astronomy topics, but we also cover the intersection of space and commerce, particular rocket startups like SpaceX, Blue Origin or Vector and the growing satellite startup market. • Robots and AI: There’s a lot happening in the world of robotics and artificial intelligence, both in the lab and as applied to business. • Environment and Weather: Stories about major weather events and the environment are topics that always do well at Forbes. Looking ahead, we expect to be also focusing on the startups moving into green areas as well as the burgeoning market in private weather data collection, from satellites to on the ground sensors to apps.
