Tess Gerritsen, whose 1999 novel Gravity has 'a lone female astronaut trapped

credit.
The web page for 'Pier Zine: a series of drop-in zine making workshops'
(Stromness, Orkney, 17-19 April) airbrushed away the sf fanzines of the 1930s

in a culture of D.I.Y. and collaboration, their popularity has since
sky-rocketed ...'
'Ukrainian authorities banned a man who changed his name to "Darth Vader" from
running in the country's upcoming presidential election, suspecting he was
being paid by Russia to discredit the vote.'
