🌎 MARBLE is the SETI Institute's most ambitious mission yet: our first space observatory. It will study Earth from lunar orbit the way we'd study an inhabited world around another star, building the reference that future searches for life will use. Swipe through to see every giving level. At $100 and above, you join the First Light Circle, and your name is laser-etched onto a film carried aboard the spacecraft. #SETIInstitute #MARBLE #SearchForLife #SETI #SpaceExploration #Astrobiology
