- About the Cover
Electronic devices provide a vital underpinning not only for modern life on earth but also for human efforts to explore outer space. In the cover photo, taken in September 2006, Canadian astronaut Steve MacLean and colleague Dan Burbank crry out work on the International Space Station during a space walk high over Eastern Canada. The well-known "Canadarm" - featuring remote manipulator technology developed in Canada for the space shuttle and space station programs - can be seen at the upper left.
