A Youth-Led Research Initiative Combining Music, Mental Health, and Science
Hearts in Orbit is a youth-led initiative exploring how music can support mental wellness in the most extreme environments—from outer space to underserved communities on Earth.
Through research and design, we’re developing customizable music-based tools that enhance emotional well-being, focus, and rest in isolated or high-stress conditions. Whether for astronauts on a Mars mission or children in hospitals, we believe music can heal, connect, and uplift—across any distance.
Our Focus Areas
We design customizable sound-based interventions—like playlists, apps, and music boxes—that promote emotional balance and cognitive focus.
Our research investigates how music affects mood, stress, and mental clarity in isolated environments like Mars simulations and hospitals.
We adapt our tools to support vulnerable groups on Earth—children in hospitals, seniors in care centers, and underserved communities worldwide.
