About this award
Louisiana Board of Regents was awarded a $100,000 cooperative agreement by NASA's Shared Services Center on August 1, 2024, to support research on detecting infrasonic signatures of Venus seismic activity using balloon-borne sensors positioned at 55 kilometers altitude. The project, designated RFA-078, is scheduled for completion by July 31, 2026, and will be performed in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. This award represents a non-set-aside contract focused on advancing scientific understanding of Venus's geological activity through innovative sensor technology deployed in the planet's upper atmosphere.
This cooperative agreement aligns with NASA's broader Space Mission Directorate (SMD) objectives in planetary science and exploration. The Louisiana Board of Regents, serving as the state's higher education coordinating agency, continues to leverage its network of public universities to deliver sophisticated aerospace research projects. The Board's established track record with NASA includes multiple cooperative agreements focused on advanced materials development, lunar habitat research, and planetary science applications, making this Venus seismic detection initiative consistent with its portfolio of innovative space exploration research initiatives.
