Aerospace Research & Engineering Systems Institute, Inc. (ARES Institute) is an American 501 (c)(3) tax-exempt non-profit organization founded to promote space exploration and STEM education through hands-on research projects involving industry and students of all ages. Our mission includes public outreach through media activities, including our flagship publication, Zero-G News.
ARES Institute came to life in 2003 in the wake of the Columbia accident and recognition of the need to increase public support for space exploration as well as STEM education in America’s schools. One of the ways we do this is by creating unique projects utilizing nanosatellite technologies to design and build hardware and experiments that may actually fly in space.
Currently (Oct. 2013), we are working on a project we have named “LunarSail”.
