Skepter
''Skepter'' is a popular science magazine of the Dutch skeptical foundation Stichting Skepsis. It describes paranormal or controversial theories and methods from a skeptical perspective. == History ==
In its first issue, the contemporary president of Stichting Skepsis, astronomer Cornelis de Jager, wrote that the paper "could fulfill a useful task in explaining many seemingly miraculous things, and consequently to the clarification of the misconceptions that exist in many people's minds. Education of a hopefully large audience is the first and foremost task of our magazine." From 1988 until 2002, astronomer Marcel Hulspas was editor-in-chief, and when he was succeeded by Rob Nanninga, the magazine first appeared in colour. In 2007, to reduce costs, increase accessibility and facilitate production and distribution, ''Skepter'' has been concentrated more and more on the Internet.〔 In that year, the frequency of ''Skepter'' was reduced from quarterly to semi-annually. On the other hand, its size grew from 20 pages per issue in 1988 to 48 in 2014. During Nanninga's editorship (2002–2014), the number of subscribers increased from about 1500 to 2200. After Nanninga's death in May 2014, he was succeeded as editor-in-chief by science journalist Hans van Maanen in December.〔 The paid circulation is more than 2300, the total circulation is at 2900. Since December 2014, the staff consists of editor-in-chief Hans van Maanen and editors Dirk Koppenaal and CSI fellow Jan Willem Nienhuys. The layout was revamped, and plans were announced to start issuing ''Skepter'' four times a year again, as was the case before 2007.
