SDG 9, 17 — Curated ChallengeCurated Challenge

Planned Space Exploration

Space exploration should not be the exclusive domain of governments and billionaires. Planned Space Exploration on GCN opens the frontier to everyone — from citizen scientists analyzing telescope data, to engineers designing open-source satellite components, to educators developing space literacy programs. Every contribution makes space a shared human endeavor, not a private one.
