Galaktika

Galaktika is a Hungarian science fiction magazine. At its peak, 94,000 copies of the magazine were printed in Hungary. The publication originally ran from 1972 to 1995, before ceasing publication. It was revived and financed by Metropolis Media in 2004.

Original Run
The magazine was divided into three sections: "Thematic", "National", and "Mixed". The first section concentrated on stories with similar themes, while the second selected works from the literature of a specific country. Péter Kuczka remained the editor during the lifetime of the original magazine. During its initial run, 2,257 short stories and articles written by more than 1,000 authors were published in Galaktika. ==Revival==
Revival
Galaktika was revived by István Burger and managed by Metropolis Media in November 2004 with issue #176. Cat Rambo, president of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association, issued a statement criticizing the magazine and formally recommending that: "authors, editors, translators, and other publishing professionals avoid working with Galaktika until the magazine has demonstrated that existing issues have been addressed and that there will be no recurrence." ==Awards==
