Help Save the Search

The search for life beyond Earth is a profound scientific quest. Today, that search is under threat. Challenges to federal funding that support science are putting future research at risk. Your voice can help ensure this work continues.

Since 1984, the SETI Institute has partnered closely with NASA to explore the cosmos. Together, we’ve advanced the study of distant exoplanets, planetary systems, and astrobiology, building the innovative technologies that help us understand our place in the universe.

The SETI Institute is home to more than 100 scientists. Much of their research is federally funded and advances our mission to drive discovery and inspire the next generation of explorers.

Potential budget cuts at NASA threaten key programs at the SETI Institute and our ability to continue this critical research is also at risk. Every discovery and insight into whether life might exist beyond Earth depends on sustained support for this work.

By signing the petition, you send a clear message: this search matters — to science, to education, and to the generations who will inherit the future of space exploration.

Sign the petition today and join people around the world committed to keeping the search alive.
