Mission
THE PLANETS FOUNDATION'S PURPOSE IS TO ADVANCE THE KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING OF EXOPLANETS AND SOLAR-PLANETARY BODIES IN THE UNIVERSE. WE ACCOMPLISH THIS BY CONDUCTING RESEARCH, DEVELOPING SOFTWARE ALGORITHMS AND CREATING NEW SCIENTIFIC TOOLS AND INSTRUMENTS TO STUDY THESE CELESTIAL BODIES. IN ADDITION TO OUR RESEARCH EFFORTS, WE HAVE DEVELOPED AN EDUCATION AND OUTREACH PROGRAM DESIGNED FOR CHILDREN, STUDENTS AND GENERAL PUBLIC. THIS CREATES AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE YOUNG GENERATION GETS EXCITED TO PURSUE CAREERS IN SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING AND MATH (STEM).
