SPACE JUNK is a brand new publication examining the intersection of youth culture and space exploration. Bringing together voices from across science, art, and speculative fiction, it positions itself as both document and provocation — a record of a generation reimagining humanity’s relationship to space. Issue One — Pilot — unfolds as a composite of research, documentation, and visual interpretation. It moves between scientific inquiry, cultural reflection, and speculative narrative, assembling contributions that consider the realities and mythologies of space travel. Questions of inheritance and futurity run throughout: what knowledge is carried forward, how new societies might be structured beyond Earth, and who is shaping the next phase of cosmic exploration. Across its pages, historical material and contemporary perspectives intersect. Debris from an early American spacecraft, recovered from a 1970s crash in Western Australia, is revisited through annotated science fiction texts by Charlie Fox. Chris Kraus engages a new generation of trainee astronauts in conversation, while Charlie Duke reflects on his experience of walking on the Moon, grounding the publication in both lived history and projected futures. The issue brings together original works spanning photography, fashion, and visual art, forming a shifting field of image-making that moves between the documentary and the constructed. Contributors include Claire Barrow, Ellie Grace Cumming, Trent Parke, Clementine Schneidermann, Oscar Foster Kane, and Rory Mullen, among others. Rather than offering a fixed perspective, SPACE JUNK operates as an open-ended assemblage — a convergence of disciplines and sensibilities that reflects an evolving cultural attitude toward space as both frontier and fiction. 24 x 32cm. 266 pages.
