This might seem kind of trivial but it has been one of those things banging around in the back of my head for ages.
I have been using a # between sections of stories (where they don’t have chapters or something) in the magazine and I was thinking that I need something better than that.

Perhaps three classic finned rocket-ship outlines. Or three ringed planet outlines. Or maybe a black-and-white image of a scroll.
I agree. Over time, you could accumulate a variety of little SciFi/SciPhi icons to use as dividers, in addition to a rocket ship and a ringed planet:
– ray gun
– Erlenmeyer flask/smoking beaker
– bug-eyed tentacled alien
– little bitty ‘the Thinker’ by Rodin
Then, use the one or ones that best apply to the story.
But then, maybe these would be better for the ends of stories/essays rather than in the middle, as they might be too distracting. A curlicue might work better mid-piece. But I bet your friends and contributors could cook up a bunch if so desired.
