The $5,536,817.25 contract is for a two-year mission extension of the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) program. The contract is a cost-no-fee delivery order, with a period of performance through January 31, 2018. The University of Texas at Austin, as the prime contractor, is leveraging its...
This federal contract award is for the GRAVITY RECOVERY AND CLIMATE EXPERIMENT (GRACE) IT HARDWARE project, awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Langley Research Center to the University of Texas at Austin. The $117,146.00 delivery order contract is for the provision of IT hardware in support of the GRACE mission. GRACE is a joint mission between NASA and the German Aerospace Center to monitor changes in the Earth's gravity field and provide insights into climate...
This is a $740,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Texas at Austin to help validate time-variable gravity data from the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) mission. The University of Texas at Austin is the prime recipient on this grant, which does not have a set-aside designation. The grant is focused on addressing challenges in validating GRACE gravity solutions due to the lack of independent mass or gravity change...
This federal contract award, valued at $1,610,579.00, was granted to the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin) by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The contract is for a hybrid architecture to obtain high-spatial-frequency mass change data from cross-track gradiometers in conjunction with a twin constellation of GRACE-like satellite-to-satellite tracking mission. This work supports NASA's Earth science research objectives. The contract has no set-aside designation,...
This federal contract award, NNX16AF20G, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Texas at Austin to analyze long-term Satellite Laser Ranging (SLR) data in order to support the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) mission. The $418,768.21 grant aims to: (1) provide a consistent time series of the Earth's low-degree gravitational coefficients, including the J2 parameter and degree 1 (geocenter) terms, to aid GRACE science...
