Philosophy Statement- Upwards and onwards, we challenge the conventional crossroads of mind and matter, curiosity and conscience, of past, present, and future. We value fielding inquiry, working hypothesis, a sacred view of nature, knowledge, and time. We build efficiently, but slowly, question deeply, and do not disregard chemical, human, ecological, global costs as the clock runs dry toward true progress.

Ethics Statement- At Pelagris, we believe in transparency, responsibility, and the pursuit of meaningful innovation. We are committed to ethical research, sustainable development, and respecting the globe as a chemical system. We prioritize integrity, safety, and both long term and short term material.

History & Context- Pelagris began as a series of experiments in a community college physics lab, alongside a philosophy and ethics course. With caution, the broader vision evolved from thermodynamics, closed and open systems, chemistry and physics, to a platform for developing safer pursuits of the unknown. Innovation and adventure that serves life.
