The Ciel Ouvert Mass Spectrometry Laboratory:

A Vision for the Future

We are not just building a lab for meteorites. We are building a center of scientific excellence for Belgium and beyond. Once operational, the Ciel Ouert Mass Spectrometry Laboratory will have a dual mission: Cosmic Research and Earthly Applications.

1. Cosmic Research:

· Perform precise chemical and isotopic analysis of our meteorite collection to unravel the origins of the solar system.

· Identify the building blocks of planets and the history of water in our cosmic neighborhood.

2. Earthly Applications:

Our advanced technology will be a resource for the wider community.We plan to offer analytical services to support vital research in:

· Environmental Science: Analyzing water quality and tracking pollutants in soil and air.

· Medical Research: Assisting in the identification of biomarkers and the composition of pharmaceutical compounds.

· Agriculture: Helping to study soil nutrients and plant compositions for sustainable farming.

Why Support the Lab?

By contributing to the Ciel Ouert laboratory,you are not just funding space exploration. You are investing in a versatile tool that will advance knowledge, protect our environment, and improve human health.
