Speculation was an award-winning, highly influential British fanzine edited by Peter Weston.
Speculation was released under the title Zenith for the first six issues, which lasted from 1963 till 1964. It was then called Zenith Speculation for issues 7 to 13, between 1964 and 1966. At that time it assumed its final identity, Speculation
Contributors to Speculation include John Brosnan, David Masson, John J. Pierce, writing on Cordwainer Smith, Larry Niven,
Letters of comment included Michael Moorcock.
A series of "Speculation Conferences" were also organised, adopting a similarly "sercon" approach to science fiction analysis. It won the very first Nova Award, in 1973.
