Science journalism lives in our minds: its stories, arguments, data and ideas travel from brain to brain in words, pictures, podcasts and pixels. But science journalism also inhabits news rooms and magazine headquarters, film studios and sound booths around the world. This is an attempt to map those physical spaces. Mostly for fun, but also because it could be handy to have such a map.

Okay, so this is a work in progress and by no means a comprehensive map or list of science journalism outlets around the world. I realize I have neglected many outlets and I welcome any assistance improving the map.
-If you know of a science-y magazine, newspaper section, website, radio show, production company etc that you think should be included, please leave a comment or send me an email: ferris [dot] jabr@gmail.com. If you know the exact address of the outlet as well, that would be doubly awesome!
-There are likely at least a few mistakes among the addresses. For example, some of the addresses include PO boxes and may not pinpoint offices or headquarters. If you spot any errors, please let me know. I collected all these addresses online, but they are not always as easy to find as you might imagine – sometimes they’re hidden in obscure corners of websites.
-Finally, if anyone has any thoughts about making the map prettier and more useful, etc, I’d love to hear from you. Please feel free to use the data presented here however you like! I experimented with a number of free online mapping tools, but in the end I liked Google Maps for its ease of use and ability to map exact street addresses.

I leave you another address
Muy Interesante Argentina: Azopardo 565, Buenos Aires, Argentina
1 Focus magazine

2 The Times (London) Eureka supplement
This is such a great idea! Are you interested in non-english stuff as well? In that case I could provide a short list of Greek science mags
Would be great if you could get the Institute of Physics adn the Institute of Physics Publishing on the map – our addresses are below:
Institute of Physics

Thanks!

The IoP (see above) does not much in London. Bristol is where it happens.
Most of the output is journals. If you want to restrict it to “popular” stuff, then Physics World certainly belongs in there.
And do we count at Science|Business?
Brussels is home base.
Would be grate if you get Pesquisa FAPESP on the map. It is the magazine published by São Paulo Research Foundation (FAPESP).
