About Gravity Frontiers
Gravity Frontiers is a science & technology foundation that brings together scientists and engineers, investors and patrons, private entrepreneurs, and public institutions to drive breakthroughs in deep-space research and develop advanced space technologies
Mission of Gravity Frontiers
Establish the fundamental scientific and technological foundations for a future interplanetary economy and eventual interstellar travel by advancing astrophysics research and investing in space technologies.
What we do
Advancing frontier research
We focus on breakthrough research in fundamental physics that can enable transformative space technologies. Studies in gravity, dark matter, and dark energy will define the next major technological leap.
Developing and investing in space technologies
We create and support technologies that make deep-space exploration feasible—from next-generation propulsion systems to life-support solutions—building the engineering foundation for interplanetary and interstellar missions.
Fostering a science-centered society
We promote a science-driven culture in which scientific and technological progress forms the basis of social development. Just as SpaceX reshaped public perception of the space industry, we aim to transform attitudes toward fundamental science.
