A year of science, with context. That's the goal of our revamped year in science issue. We've taken the biggest discoveries and results from 2018 and grouped them by field so you can see where each story fits in the larger space of inquiry. We hope to give you a sense of the state of each field, through the breakthroughs that rise to the top.
From the environment to genetics to space, these are the scientific achievements that defined 2018, and which lay the groundwork for even more exciting accomplishments in 2019.
