About this award
The Johns Hopkins University was awarded a Cooperative Agreement (20-HFORT20-0017) valued at $8.45 million by NASA's Shared Services Center for the Sun Coronal Ejection Tracker (SUNCET) project. The work will be performed in Baltimore, Maryland, with an ultimate completion date of March 31, 2027. This contract represents a non-set-aside award based on full and open competition, reflecting Johns Hopkins' established capabilities in space science research and development. The institution brings substantial experience in NASA-funded space exploration initiatives, including previous investigations of cometary composition, planetary science, and balanced science program support across lunar and Martian exploration domains.
SUNCET will leverage Johns Hopkins' expertise in advanced scientific instrumentation and space-based observation systems to track and analyze solar coronal ejections—critical phenomena affecting space weather and Earth's magnetosphere. This effort aligns with NASA's broader space science objectives to enhance understanding of solar dynamics and improve forecasting capabilities for solar events that impact communications, power systems, and satellite operations. The cooperative agreement structure enables collaborative research and development between Johns Hopkins and NASA, positioning the university's resources and technical expertise to contribute meaningfully to the agency's heliophysics research priorities.
