Nexus for Exoplanet System Science (NExSS)

Nexus for Exoplanet System Science (NExSS) is a NASA-led initiative that brings together scientists from different fields to study planets outside our solar system, called exoplanets. Its goal is to understand how these planets form, evolve, and whether they can support life. By integrating knowledge from astronomy, planetary science, and biology, NExSS aims to identify planets that might be habitable and better understand the conditions needed for life elsewhere in the universe. It fosters collaboration to explore the complex interactions within planetary systems, advancing our quest to find life beyond Earth.
