AN ARTICLE A DAY, PICKED BY OUR EDITORS
When it comes to your health, do you prefer your care to be IRL (in real life) or URL (virtual)? If you’ve had an online checkup recently, you’re not alone—indeed, 88 percent of consumers in a 2021 survey said they had used telehealth services since the pandemic began. But physicians are indicating they might prefer a return to more hands-on care. A new article can help you make sense of the disconnect between consumers and providers, plus the trends shaping what’s next for telehealth. Check it out.

“Getting humans beyond Mars is a real challenge because it’s very far. You start having trouble generating power and communicating. There are some technologies that we’re developing that can help, and if we can build upon these technologies, I think it will be possible to explore the outer solar system.”
—Joe Landon of Lockheed Martin on humans going to Mars and beyond in a new article on the emerging space economy
