Two of the most profound questions that all cultures, both past and present, have asked are: where did we come from and what is our destiny?

NASA Science seeks to provide quantitative information pertinent to these basic elements of human curiosity by enabling scientists and engineers to construct instruments and make measurements on these topics that were once the purview of thought experiments only.
