A public library initiative celebrating more than 250 years of scientific achievement across the United States and its territories.

Science Across America invites library communities nationwide to spotlight the scientific discoveries that have shaped our world. This interactive map highlights key moments in American science—from landmark global breakthroughs to local innovations submitted by librarians from every state and U.S. territory.

New pins are added regularly, so explore often to see what's new. Participating libraries are invited to help fill the map as we celebrate American science, past and present, and from sea to shining sea.

Science Across America is part of Spark of Science@ My Library, a joint initiative of STAR Net and HHMI Tangled Bank Studios.

Scientific milestones include:
Discoveries that expand the human knowledge of the natural world.
Innovations that build on careful observations and experimentation.
Technological Inventions that advance our society.
Conceptual Frameworks or Theories that influence scientific thought.
