This federal contract award to the University of Florida (UF) through its Division of Sponsored Research supports the development of a charge management system (CMS) for the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) mission, which consists of three spacecraft forming an equilateral triangle in orbit. The CMS is a critical component that controls the bulk potential of the test masses in the gravitational reference sensors (GRS), allowing them to freely fall and enabling the detection of...
This federal contract award was granted by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the University of Florida (UF) Division of Sponsored Research to conduct research and development on an optical bench for a LISA-like mission. The $649,636.25 grant will support UF's efforts to redesign the core parts of the interferometer bench, explore alternative materials and assembly techniques, and reduce the number and lengths of critical paths. This work aims to simplify the manufacturing process...
This federal contract award to the University of Florida (UF) Division of Sponsored Research supports the development of advanced simulation tools for the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) mission. LISA aims to detect and observe gravitational waves from various astrophysical sources using a constellation of three spacecraft separated by 2.5 million km. The $576,654.63 grant will contribute to three key areas: simulating the drag-free and attitude control system that governs the...
The University of Florida (UF), through its Division of Sponsored Research, has been awarded a $4,113,623.00 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to support research on the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) project. LISA will measure gravitational waves in the 10 micro-Hertz to 1 Hertz frequency range, a signal-rich area. The grant, which does not have a set-aside designation, will run until February 28, 2026. As a leading research institution, UF has...
This federal contract award, valued at $545,528.00, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Florida (UF) for research related to atmospheric pressure and composition considerations in the design and construction of spaceflight vehicles and extraterrestrial habitats. The contract is a grant for research, with a period of performance ending on October 24, 2025. UF, a prominent public research university and 1862 land-grant...
The University of Florida Division of Sponsored Research was awarded a $1.24 million grant by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to support testing and verification of prototypes for the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) mission. LISA is a NASA-supported European Space Agency-led space-based gravitational wave observatory planned for launch in the mid-2020s. Under the grant, the University of Florida will verify the dimensional stability of LISA telescope structural...
