Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine
April 2002

This month's issue of Asimov's features a Reflections column by Robert Silverberg who does not like the current action taken by some people to 'downgrade' Pluto from a planet to become the largest known member of the Kuiper belt (where most comets come from). Silverberg feels that as Pluto is the only planet discovered during his lifetime (1930 by Clyde Tombaugh), it should remain as a planet as and as a marker of the outer boundary of the solar system.

Stories featured in this issue are:

• "Ring Rats" by R. Garcia y Robertson. An exciting story that throws together two unlikely characters; a young girl who hires herself to transport a cargo ship and a crewmember of a liner who witnesses a pirate hijacking said cargo ship. They get thrown together and must struggle to survive and escape recapture.
