#SaveTheSpaceMice_White.png

​​​​

The Advanced SpaceLife Research Institute (ASRI) is leading a grassroots fundraising initiative to save the mice colony of the Rodent Research - 20 (RR-20) experiment. The mice are the descendants of a 2023 NASA spaceflight biology mission flown on the International Space Station, currently housed at the University of Kansas Medical Center (KUMC). Due to recent budget cuts at the agency, NASA was unable to extend RR-20's research

About Our Campaign​​

grant, despite initial findings suggesting huge implications for genetics and human reproductive health sciences.

​

Without necessary funding, the space mice will unfortunately have to be euthanized, as their remaining grant funds are dwindling rapidly and the research team has no other means to sustain them.​

​

​​​How You Can Help​​​

​

Our team is seeking to raise an amount of $1,000,000 USD, giving the mice of RR-20 a lifeline for at least another three years, and allowing researchers time to unlock troves of genetic data which could positively impact medical science here on Earth and secure humanity's future in outer space. Please donate today to help us save these exceptional animals -- ​any and all contributions are sincerely appreciated.​
