The Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) is a world-renowned research and development center managed by NASA and operated by the California Institute of Technology (Caltech). Based in Pasadena, California, JPL designs, builds, and operates robotic spacecraft that explore the solar system and beyond. It has led many of NASA’s most groundbreaking missions, including the Mars rovers (Spirit, Opportunity, Curiosity, and Perseverance), Voyager, Cassini, and the Europa Clipper. JPL’s scientists and engineers also conduct cutting-edge research in astrophysics, planetary science, and Earth observation, developing technologies for deep-space navigation, robotics, and autonomous systems. As a hub of innovation, JPL continues to push the boundaries of exploration and expand humanity’s reach across the cosmos.
