The region’s home for space news
We need your help to share the journey to the Red Planet.
We are a local chapter of The Mars Society dedicated to connecting Professionals, Academics, Students, and Enthusiasts in the Broader Philadelphia region. Our area has played a quiet but important part in the history of space exploration and we want to help that continue into the future.
