NASA astrobiološki institut (engl. NASA Astrobiology Institute, NAI) je formirala NASA 1998.[1] s ciljem razvijanja polja astrobiologije i formiranja naučnog okvira za svemirske misije.[2] NAI je virtualna,[3] distribuirana organizacija koja integriše astrobiološka istraživanja i programe obuke.[4] Direktor instituta je Karl Pilčer od 2006.[5]
