- This federal contract award to Northern Arizona University (NAU) is for a research project focused on conducting a ground-based telescopic survey to search for a hypothesized distant massive planet in our solar system. The $536,220.47 grant is being funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) under its Planetary Astronomy (PAST) program. The research aims to either discover this hypothesized planet or rule out its existence through a multi-pronged approach involving...
- This federal contract award (80NSSC18K0349) was made by NASA to Northern Arizona University (NAU) to conduct research on exoplanets and their atmospheres. The $472,252 grant supports the development of climate models and spectral databases to help distinguish between "super-Earth" terrestrial planets and "mini-Neptune" gas-rich planets, which are common in exoplanet systems. This work aims to improve NASA's ability to characterize exoplanet atmospheres through future...
