LASP’s Top Articles of 2023

As 2023 draws to a close and we take a look back on the top website articles of the year, we see many highlighting LASP’s role in the past, present, and future of space science. This is fitting in a year in which LASP celebrated its 75th anniversary. What also emerges is a celebration of the people of LASP: Articles about those who carry out the lab’s transformative research, those who carry on the traditions of education and training the next generation of space scientists, and about the undergraduate and graduate students and postdoctoral researchers whose work is carrying forward our proud tradition of excellence. Here, we’ve pulled together our top stories of 2023 celebrating the people of LASP. From undergraduates awarded prestigious scholarships, to artists beginning a new program that brings art and space science together, to early-career researchers kicking off exciting new missions — 2023 was not only a year of celebrating LASP’s history, but its future.

Founded a decade before NASA, the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics at the University of Colorado Boulder is on a mission to transform human understanding of the cosmos by pioneering new technologies and approaches to space science. LASP is the only academic research institute in the world to have sent instruments to every planet in our solar system. LASP began celebrating its 75th anniversary in April 2023.
