We dedicate the issues of SCIplanet 2016 to the “People of Science”. Naturally, because we could never do justice to all the people of science, we have decided to focus on four groups of such people. Within this context, we are dedicating this first issue of 2016 to the “Science of the Arabs”. In this issue, we attempt to highlight some distinctive Arab scientists of the past and the present and their impact on different sciences, and in turn on our lives and the lives of all humans.

SCIplanet is a quarterly bilingual edutainment science magazine, published by the Bibliotheca Alexandrina Planetarium Science Center (PSC). The magazine aims to popularize science among the Egyptian public to realize the PSC’s vision of “Science For All!”.
