New Scientist Australian Edition - 3 January 2026 : The January 3, 2026, Australian edition of New Scientist welcomes the new year with a comprehensive "2026 Preview," spotlighting a landmark year for space and medicine that includes NASA's Artemis II lunar mission, the arrival of more affordable weight-loss pills to rival semaglutide, and the imminent results of clinical trials exploring LSD as a breakthrough treatment for anxiety. This issue's cover story, "The Power of Deep Rest," investigates the neurological "safe mode" the brain can enter to combat chronic stress and physical exhaustion, offering a science-backed alternative to traditional relaxation. Readers can also delve into the century-long search for a massive "missing" meteorite, a technical analysis of controversial new satellites designed to reflect "sunshine on demand" to Earth, and a fascinating look at kama muta-the universal emotion of being "moved"-and how it fosters social connection. From Michael Brooks' column on the mental health benefits of stargazing to a "Back Pages" guide on how stroking seedlings can actually improve plant growth, this edition provides a sophisticated look at the discoveries and global shifts, including the end of major US-Russia nuclear pacts, that will define the scientific landscape of 2026.
