Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

When science seems responsible for creating as many problems as it solves, with genetically modified food, human cloning and nuclear power, it comes as a relief to celebrate a simple, stunning advance of the frontiers of human knowledge.

The fearlessness of the Saturn probe, sent 2 billion miles in seven years by a gravitational slingshot around Venus and landing on a moon by remote control, using radio signals that take 67 minutes to arrive from Earth, is simply breathtaking There are no failures, no excuses this time - nothing about the wrong kind of methane - just a triumph of human ingenuity. Marvel, and learn.
