ASU’s School of Earth and Space Exploration has built up a renowned space
exploration capability based on the pioneering work of faculty members
Carleton Moore and Ron Greeley. Today, ASU registers in the top 2% for
NASA-funded research expenditures and is one of the nation’s top
universities for space exploration. From missions — to the moon, to Mars, to
the outer planets of Saturn and Jupiter — to paradigm-shifting discoveries
in faraway galaxies via the James Webb Space Telescope, ASU projects are laying
groundwork for discoveries that will inspire careers, influence economies
and expand human knowledge.
