Spotlight on SETI

Recent discoveries, such as exoplanets, have brought us closer than ever to answering the question of whether we are alone in the universe.

Social Media

We not only share the news and activities of the day on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube and more, but invite the public to join the conversation.
