About Us

LunARC is a not-for-profit initiative founded in 2022 by Dr. Lakshmi Karan and Topher Wilkins. Today, we are a diverse community of people driven by the principles of boldness, curiosity, humility, collaboration. In 2024, we incorporated as Multiplanetary Together, Inc., in the U.S. state of Delaware, though we still do business as "LunARC." We are a U.S. 501(c)(3) nonprofit (EIN No. 99-4366246), and donations are tax deductible in the United States.
