We are excited and humbled to announce that NASA has selected SPHEREx as its next medium-class explorer mission, for launch in 2023!

SPHEREx team members from Argonne National Laboratory have created an exciting new visualization of the galaxy catalog that SPHEREx will generate (if approved by NASA, that is).

The SPHEREx Concept Study Report has been submitted to NASA!

Last week, SPHEREx PI Jamie Bock gave the weekly colloquium at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics.

SPHEREx and the other MIDEX finalists are described in this Science article.

Wonderful news! We learned today that NASA chose SPHEREx for a Phase A study!

We are disappointed not to have been selected as a NASA SMEX this round.

An enhanced version of SPHEREx was submitted as a NASA Medium-Class Explorer (MIDEX), with Step-1 selections expected in July 2017.
