Forging ahead with our digital system’s evolution
In a significant shift in the world of science publishing, Cosmos magazine, a beloved platform for science enthusiasts, will cease its print production in June 2025. However, the online news service will continue to thrive, albeit on a new digital platform.
The exact identity of the new digital destination replacing Cosmos magazine remains unspecified in the current search results. References to "Learning Cosmos" and various unrelated mentions of "Cosmos" do not provide a clear indication of the new platform.
Despite the uncertainty, it is confirmed that the online news service will persist, with a dedicated news team continuing to share the latest science discoveries and interviews with scientists. This team will work tirelessly to bring the world of science to audiences in an engaging and informative manner.
The new website will not only continue the tradition of providing news but also publish peer-reviewed journals, e-books, and fact-based science news. This expansion of content is a testament to the platform's commitment to delivering comprehensive and reliable science information.
For those who have subscribed to the platform, refunds will be issued for the remaining subscription term. Whether the subscription was purchased directly or through an agent, the refund process will be facilitated accordingly. Schools or libraries that purchased via EFT or paid on invoice through their school account will be contacted separately to organize the refund.
The decision to stop the production of the print magazine was not made lightly. It reflects a wider shift of audiences away from print magazines and the rising costs of producing print magazines. The new website aims to bring together audiences for a sustainable future, ensuring that the love for science continues to thrive.

The original publication of this information was by Cosmos under the title "A new future for our platform". As we bid farewell to the print version of Cosmos, we eagerly await the unveiling of its new digital home, where the pursuit of knowledge and the love for science will continue to flourish.
The new digital platform, yet to be identified, is set to expand its content offerings beyond news with the addition of peer-reviewed journals, e-books, and fact-based science news. This indicates the platform's commitment to delivering comprehensive and reliable science information, aiming to create a sustainable future for science enthusiasts.
In addition to covering the latest science discoveries, interviews with scientists, and engaging science news, the new website will also focus on health-and-wellness topics, promoting a holistic approach to understanding and appreciating the world of science.
