- This is a one-year, $100,000.00 Cooperative Agreement awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Arkansas at Little Rock (UALR), a member of the University of Arkansas System. The purpose of the contract is to develop state-of-the-art electronic packaging and assembly technologies that can withstand the extreme environment of Venus, including high temperatures, high pressure, and corrosive conditions. The research will involve thin-film techniques to...
- This is a Cooperative Agreement awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Delaware for the development of a new material platform for miniaturized, lightweight, and low-cost transducers operating in harsh environments, specifically designed for probing the surface and interior structures of Venus. The objective is to leverage wide bandgap semiconductor materials, particularly silicon carbide (SiC), and emerging two-dimensional (2D) layered materials...
- This is a $226,080 grant awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center to the Ohio Aerospace Institute (OAI), a non-profit research organization, to develop an imaging system capable of operating in the extreme high-temperature and high-pressure environment of the surface of Venus. The effort aims to enable future long-duration Venus lander missions by creating a low-mass, low-power camera that can function continuously at the ambient conditions of 740 K (467°C) and 92 bars of pressure, overcoming...
- This is a $130,299.04 grant for research awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Makel Engineering, Inc., a small business contractor. The project will develop silicon carbide-based electronics capable of operating at 500 degrees Celsius to support previously demonstrated high-temperature chemical sensors for use in harsh environments such as the surface of Venus. The goal is to enable long-duration, uncooled operation of the Venus Chemical Microsensor Array...
- This federal contract award, valued at $99,996.58, was issued by the Shared Services Center of NASA to the University of North Dakota (UND) Division of Research & Economic Development. The contract aims to develop a protective coating system to enable reliable long-duration operation of advanced sensor platforms under the extreme environmental conditions of the Venus surface, which experiences extremely high ambient temperature and pressure. The project will leverage UND's expertise in...
- This federal contract award, NNX15AL57G, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville Division (Office of Research & Sponsored Programs) to conduct an experimental investigation on the stability of high-temperature volatiles (semi-metal compounds of sulfur, selenium, and tellurium) in the atmosphere of Venus and their interaction with the planet's surface. The primary objectives are to determine which atmospheric...
- This federal contract award, valued at $53,333.89, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) to contribute to the planning of radiometry observations for the Vensar instrument on the upcoming Envision mission to Venus. UAF's Grants and Contracts Administration Division, operating as Grants & Contracts, will carry out the work. The contract has two primary tasks: (1) using previous Magellan mission data to identify...
- NASA's Shared Services Center awarded a $799,816 definitive contract to Makel Engineering, Inc., a small business, for development of high-temperature solid-state sensors to monitor carbon dioxide and nitrogen in the Venus atmosphere on June 12, 2019, under a total small business set-away. The contract calls for development of amperometric and potentiometric sensors compatible with silicon carbide electronics for Venus atmospheric analysis. These sensors address the absence of demonstrated...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I contract to Honeybee Robotics, Ltd., doing business as Honeybee Robotics Craft Mechanisms, for the development of a miniature Stirling cooler capable of keeping conventional electronics cool in the high-temperature environment of the surface of Venus. This technology is intended to enable the use of temperature-sensitive cameras and optical sensors for in-situ analysis of the...
- This federal contract award, valued at $680,146.00, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to Honeybee Robotics, Ltd. for the development and demonstration of a Venus-durable actuator and electronics system. The goal is to enable long-term (60-day) operation on the Venus surface, which can support missions like the Long Lived In Situ Solar System Explorer (LLISSE) lander. The proposed work will leverage Honeybee Robotics' expertise in...
