Help Us Lead the Way to Space

For nearly 50 years the Chicago Society for Space Studies (CSSS) has been Illinois’ premier voice for space exploration, space education, and space advocacy. From our roots at the Adler Planetarium in 1977 to our current role in shaping the conversation about space development, we have remained steadfast in one belief: Space is for everyone.

But the transition from “exploring space” to “living and working in space” requires an informed, engaged, and scientifically literate public. That’s where we come in—and where we need your help.

Why Your Support Matters

As a non-profit organization, your contributions are the fuel that powers our mission. When you donate to CSSS, you are directly supporting:

  • Public Education: Our Speakers Bureau brings space into local classrooms and community centers.
  • Space Advocacy: We provide space policy inputs to various policy leaders on the future of space settlement and industrialization.
  • The Next Generation: We support student interest in STEM via a variety of activities.
