Nuclei comprise 99.9% of all baryonic matter in the Universe and are the fuel that burns in stars and the bi-products of stellar explosions. The rather complex nature of the nuclear forces among protons and neutrons generates a broad range and diversity in the nuclear phenomena that we observe. Experiments indicate that developing a comprehensive description of all nuclei and their reactions requires theoretical and experimental investigations of rare isotopes with unusual neutron-to-proton ratios that are very different from their stable counterparts. These rare nuclei are difficult to produce and study experimentally since they can have extremely short lifetimes. The goal of a comprehensive description and reliable modeling of nuclei represents one of the great intellectual opportunities for nuclear physics in the coming years.
