- This federal contract award, identified as 80NSSC20K1429, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), a non-profit research and development organization based in San Antonio, Texas. The $599,848.00 grant is for a research project to study the hydration of lunar regolith near Apollo landing sites, using data from the Lyman Alpha Mapping Project (LAMP) instrument onboard the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO). The project aims...
- This is a $499,990 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) to conduct research on quantifying far-ultraviolet mineral abundance constraints by examining data from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter's Lyman Alpha Mapping Project (LRO-LAMP) and comparing it to laboratory samples and simulants. SwRI, a nonprofit research organization, will perform this scientific research project over a period ending on October 1, 2026....
- The Johns Hopkins University was awarded a $553,292.17 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to support the Lyman Alpha Mapping Project (LAMP) and Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera (LROC) Wide-Angle Camera aboard the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO). The grant, which runs from August 1, 2017 to July 31, 2022, will fund research to collect far-ultraviolet and near-ultraviolet data of the lunar surface, which can provide unique insights into surface maturity and...
- Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) was awarded a $49.8 million cooperative agreement by NASA on September 1, 2023, to execute the DIMPLE (Dating an Irregular Mare Patch with a Lunar Explorer) mission. This lunar exploration initiative will deploy a lander to the Irregular Mare Patch (IMP) in the Ina region to conduct scientific analysis of the surface composition, age, and geological origin. The mission employs a suite of specialized instruments, including the CODEX (Chemistry and Dating...
- This $2,974,010.00 federal grant award to Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), a non-profit research organization, seeks to adapt the Laser Absorption Spectrometer for Volatiles and Evolved Gas (LASVEGAS) instrument for use on the lunar surface. The grant, awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), has an ultimate completion date of March 8, 2026. SwRI, the prime contractor, has a strong track record of securing prime and subcontract awards from various government...
- Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) was awarded a $10.27 million cooperative agreement by a civilian federal agency (Shared Services Center) on January 5, 2022, with a completion date of January 4, 2027. The research initiative aims to advance understanding of the Moon's thermal history, vertical differentiation, and geographical variability by measuring heat flow and subsurface electrical conductivity structure at Schrodinger Basin. Electrical conductivity measurements are sensitive to both...
