The Helix (magazine)

The Helix was a bi-monthly teen science magazine[1] published by CSIRO Publishing, as the young-adult bi-monthly magazine of the Double Helix Science Club.[2] The magazine was established in 1986 as the newsletter for the science club. Soon afterwards, it grew into a magazine in its own right. In 1999, a spin-off science magazine for younger readers, called Scientriffic, was created.
