Zeit Wissen is a bi-monthly popular science magazine published in Germany.[1] The magazine is spun off from the German weekly newspaper Die Zeit.[2] The German phrase "Zeit Wissen" literally translates to "Time-Knowledge," and refers to the up-to-the-minute nature of the magazine's subject matter and focus.
