Happy Birthday, Science!  

 


Here is what some of our members have to say about 125 years of Science:


Science and Technology are critical to the future of our nation. We must recommit ourselves to fighting the barriers in whatever form they take.

Dear Science:

Happy birthday to you!

I haven't known that you are so many centuries old before; 125 is more than 5 times my age. But I know that Science is one of the most influential magazines in China. It is sometimes a standard to judge a paper wonderful or normal by what it can publish in science or not.

I am a beginner in my field, so I have to read lots of papers and other articles out of time, and science gives me the chance to study many new knowledges. Give my pure-hearted thanks to you.

Best wishes!

I remember reading the synopses back in the 70's in the printed journal.

Now, it's the first thing I look at every Friday morning in my e-mail-- 1st editors choice & then selected brevia.

Just as in the 70's, I find there's much I don't understand, but am delighted to learn a bit from the little that I can follow.

Keep up the good work and thanks for being there.


Science is forty years older than I, and looks much better.

It is very nice to see that Science journal embraces its 125th birthday. As one of the leading journals in the scientific world, Science has come out to be highly successful and influential. Therefore, I have a wish that the journal will go further when keeping its terrific quality. And moreover, readers worldwide including China will have more convenient access to it without having to worry about the limit that only the subscribers can read the full text. But now it's the case in China, comparing from which I guess it was better last year. Anyway, I still like reading the partly free full text research articles a year before.
All my best wishes!

As a graduate student and postdoc, I avidly read the job ads; as a faculty member I avidly read the latest reports in my field. Now, as a Dean, I read the whole thing -- it is not only always interesting, but helps me keep abreast of the latest discoveries in the fields of my research faculty from six disparate departments. I've "grown up" as a scientist with SCIENCE -- but while I'll continue to age, SCIENCE will be forever young!

Well, congratulations to all of us. I have been a member for most of my adult life, but have never been a "scientist." Rather, I and a small band of other social workers have been avid followers of the work of AAAS. It informed my work and practice, prior to retirement, as well as improving my teaching as a member of a social work faculty.
Thanks for the information, knowledge, wise (not always, though) discussions, and the attention paid to the world, its inhabitants, and the societies we comprise. Thanks for always standing for honesty and the open ethical discussions that have graced the pages of Science.
I imagine none of us will be here for the 250th Anniversary, so let us revel in the past and work for the future.
Go Well,
Lei Li


Happy 125th Birthday, Science! A LEADER SHEEP!
It's no small achievement - 125 years of disseminating knowledge. Reminiscing on past glory is one way to celebrate a birthday and looking forward to more challenges and excitement is yet another way. Posing questions ranging from the biological basis of consciousness to the challenge of producing an effective HIV vaccine is one way to look at years to come. The optimistic staff of Science has named these challenges for the next quarter century. I’m not sure if we can ever find an answer to some of the questions raised let alone in 25 years – but, it sure promises exciting years to follow.

Good Luck,
Sriram

I've only been reading Science for 30 years (not 125), but I feel as if
it's been my faithful companion and resource forever. I've been using
the online resources for as long as they've been available. I'm tickled
with the increasing use of Internet and email capabilities. I am one of
many non-scientist readers who value the magazine because we are in
allied professions (environmental planning in my case), have an
interest in the politics of specific scientific issues and just because
it's fun and stimulating.

I value the excellent writing and the efforts to keep non-specialists
informed on developments in a wide spectrum of fields.

Keep up the good work.

Best wishes,

Kathleen

Greetings and congratulations,

Here's to celebrating the accomplishment of SCIENCE, the scientific journal of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, reaching its 125th anniversary. It is a fine benchmark and also worthy for the journal to aid in expanding the original vision of founder Thomas Edison not only to promote scientific knowledge of our world, but to serve to promote science for the benefit of our global society. We must acknowledge, after all, that without society there wouldn't be much science at all--science must be cultivated in order to grow.

Also, kudos to SCIENCE for integrating ethnic diversity into the timeline of major discoveries by the extraordinary people whose accomplishments are recorded in the Milestones of Science poster (included in this anniversary issue). It is my hope that we continue to discover and explore new knowledge to promote a greater understanding of our natural environment; and to cultivate the diversity of our society to allow science to flourish and guide us into a healthful and fulfilling future.

Best wishes,

I am delighted and proud to have been a member for more years than I care to think about--but am still distributing copies of Science that I have read, to those who wish to become familiar with it (or can't afford it). I have seen it metamorphose many times. I am now and more than ever, completely convinced that Science, whether the journal or the field is the only hope for our badly gone astray country. You (and "Nature") are about the only strong bulwarks between the Ultra-Religious anti-reality groups, Luddites, "Know-nothings", those for whom the amassing of wealth and the devil take the others'... and any hope for the survival of our badly abused species and planet.

It's your birthday and we continue to get the benefits! I've been with SCIENCE since a mentor gave me a gift subscription before I went off to grad school in the early 70's. Thanks for helping us all keep up with the ever-changing multidisciplinary world of scientific and technological advances. It's the one place I can always turn to for comprehensive overviews and thoughtful analyses of the implications of our collective work. It's good to know that AAAS and the editors and staff keep everyone focused on the broad ramifications of science in the real world.

In a world of "secret cabbalistic knowledge"(Koch), & ideologies of eschatological nonsense, we have Science as a true, faithful guide. Science needs nurturing--we'll always have a surfeit of ignorance. "On the face of it, moral 'knowledge' fails to attach to any objective reality in the way that science does" (Churchland-"The Engine of Reason, the Seat of the soul")--------Most happy B-day-- WGD( sundog7).


Happy birthday and thanks for being such a positive influence on scientific communication. I have been a subscriber for 33 years, since the beginning of graduate school. The print version often jumps out of the mailbox before I ever see it, and then shows up later obviously enjoyed by at least one colleague. The cover art is admired even by those not particularly interested in scientific endeavors.

125 years ago, what has been published since in Science could scarcely have been imagined. Congratulations to the publication which has documented some of humankind’s greatest achievements. I look with wonder and hope to the next 125 years, to future discoveries, to the synthesis of the great knowledge which has been amassed by the journal, and to the application of Science for the betterment of life.

Happy Birthday, SCIENCE magazine!
We share a July birthday, but I'm just half your age! You've enriched my life, all these years, and helped me decide to make SCIENCE my life's work.

I wish you another 125 years of good content, good readership and a little prosperity too.

Warmest regards,

Indeed, the existence of AAAS for 125 years is a reason to celebrate.

I appreciate the contributions of AAAS to K-12 science education through Project 2061 and other programs and efforts. Currently, AAAS's support for quality and unadulterated evolution education is extremely important.

Best wishes to our partners at Science and the AAAS for the 125th anniversary … This occasion must merit something rarer than diamonds, but I guess it will be up to Science’s readers to come up with a harder substance (super-borazon?) … You’ll find extended birthday greetings here: http://msnbc.msn.com/id/8390335/

I wish to add my birthday wish for AAAS’s Science journal’s 125th Birthday.

Jerry M. Schroy


Well, congratulations to all of us. I have been a member for most of my adult life, but have never been a "scientist." Rather, I and a small band of other social workers have been avid followers of the work of AAAS. It informed my work and practice, prior to retirement, as well as improving my teaching as a member of a social work faculty.

Thanks for the information, knowledge, wise (not always, though) discussions, and the attention paid to the world, its inhabitants, and the societies we comprise. Thanks for always standing for honesty and the open ethical discussions that have graced the pages of Science.

I imagine none of us will be here for the 250th Anniversary, so let us
revel in the past and work for the future.

Go Well,
David Feldstein


It is a formidable enterprise for Science to have been publishing the best scientific achievements for 125 years, from Edison's electricity to genomics and embryonic stem cells. We have the best expectations for the future of Science magazine and for Science as a means to continually improve humankind well being.
Congratulations for this anniversary.

I have been enjoying Science and AAAS membership since my undergrad days in the '60s. I am now in my 60s and a AAAS Fellow. Science is a great teaching resource, both for breakthroughs in science and for news about controversial topics.

Your e-mail message today caused me to reflect for a moment on when I joined AAAS -- and then I realized that it was back at the tender age of 15 exactly 25 years ago! <chuckle>
And as I turn 40 in several more days, I'll look forward to sharing more milestone birthdays with Science for the rest of my life...

Science writ large embraces humanity's proudest accomplishments of the last century, yet we would do well to remember that there are many who in their ignorance hold science in low regard. On this significant anniversary, we should recommit ourselves to the advancement of science through better public education such that more people will come to realize that science does much more to solve problems than to create them.
