    Summary

    One of NASA’s strategic objectives is to discover how the universe works, explore how it began and evolved, and search for life on planets around other stars. The NASA Science Mission Directorate (SMD) addresses this strategic objective by conducting astrophysics investigations designed to address the following science goals:

    • Probe the origin and destiny of our universe, including the nature of black holes, dark energy, dark matter, and gravity;
    • Explore the origin and evolution of the galaxies, stars, and planets that make our universe; and
    • Discover and study planets around other stars and explore whether they could harbor life
