About this award

The University of Michigan's Office of Research and Sponsored Projects received a $100,000 cooperative agreement from NASA Glenn Research Center (GRC), awarded on August 21, 2023, with completion scheduled for August 20, 2025. Under this fellowship, the university will provide scientific consultation, testing design, and on-site support for NASA GRC's Particle Impact Event (PIE) sensor development. The awardee will perform testing and calibration of the PIE sensor at NASA GRC facilities and lead the sensor's integration into the Langley Research Center's Plume-Surface Interaction (PSI) ground testing campaign, which spans from spring 2024 through fall 2025. The contract requires demonstrated expertise in plume-surface interactions with lunar regolith simulant and knowledge of ground-based lunar testing methodologies.

This cooperative agreement supports NASA's lunar exploration initiatives by advancing sensor technology and testing capabilities for future lunar missions. The work will be performed at the University of Michigan's Ann Arbor, Michigan campus, with no set-aside designation applied to this procurement. The cooperative agreement structure reflects a collaborative research partnership between the academic institution and the federal agency, leveraging the university's research infrastructure and specialized expertise in lunar environmental testing to accelerate the development and validation of critical mission hardware.
