EarthSky – a clear voice for science for broadcast and the Internet – advocates science as a vital tool for the 21st century.
Our award-winning science content – in audio and video formats, in English and Spanish – is seen or heard 15 million times every day on multiple platforms via both traditional and new media outlets including National Public Radio (NPR) in the United States, independent commercial broadcast outlets in the U.S. and around the world, XM/Sirius satellite radio, WRN (formerly World Radio Network) out of London, International Community Radio Taipei (ICRT), iTunes, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Google Earth and dozens of online podcast aggregators.
We have been a world leader in bringing the voices of scientists directly to you and millions of others across the globe since 1991.
EarthSky brings scientists’ words and insights to a large audience thanks to the support and partnership of thousands of scientists and scientific institutions. EarthSky has more than 600 individual Global Science Advisors, who help us create our content. Partners and sponsors also include the National Science Foundation, NASA, NOAA, Royal Dutch Shell, the Economist, Sustainable Life Media, the American Forest Foundation, Research Corporation, the Edwards Foundation, the National Institutes of Health, the National Space Biomedical Research Institute, the Geological Society of America and many others.
We know science is not perfect. It’s a process, not a body of facts. History tells us that some of today’s scientific truths will inevitably turn out to be wrong, or only partially true. Still, science leads to profound insights about the natural world that are as true as anything can be here at the beginning of the 21st century.
The EarthSky Promise: To bring the ideas, strategies and research results of scientists to people around the world, with the goal of illuminating pathways to a sustainable future.
