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.

Skeletons will be rattled this month at London's Natural History Museum with the show Over the Edge: The World - I Didn't Know There Was So Much In It. Animators and performers will take audiences on a journey to the edge of the world. Dramatic lighting effects, music and video projections combine with animated figures to tell tales of trips into uncharted lands. Staged as part of the Museum's major new exhibition "Voyages of Discovery", the show reveals how discoveries by scientists and explorers in the 18th and 19th centuries helped shape our understanding of the world today.

Central Hall, Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London SW7 (0171- 938 9090) Tue to 14 Aug, 8.30pm
