Planetary exploration is a large part of SESE's research portfolio. 

ASU is participating in current and future projects that are on the cutting edge of planetary exploration.

Learn about new opportunities on the Moon, material return missions from asteroids and Mars, the deployment of an instrument to gather data from a moon of Jupiter and the exploration of an iron/nickel rich object in the outer part of the asteroid belt.

Seeing further into space is also seeing back in time.

New technology is allowing researchers to peer back to the time of the first stars and galaxies. 

The James Webb Space telescope gives us the best chance yet to observe our early universe and test our best understanding of the distribution of the cosmic matter we observe today.

This program is a journey to the very edge of our known universe.

Astrophotography has produced many iconic images of fantastic skyscapes.   Roiling colorful clouds gas and dust suggest cataclysmic events on a massive scale.

This program will ask the questions: " Where are these objects in our galaxy?" and "What do they tell us about the forces that shape the space around us?"
