This federal contract award, with ID 80NSSC19K0243, was granted to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) for the Solar System Working Program. The $427,634.86 grant supports research to understand the atmospheric, climatologic, dynamic, geologic, physical and chemical processes in the Solar System, specifically examining the strength of Venus lightning as measured by the Pioneer Venus Orbiter and Venus Express missions. The research aims to determine if the observations from the two missions provide consistent energy flux estimates and local time variations, as well as compare the Venus lightning energy flux to that observed in the Earth's ionosphere. This grant has no set-aside designation and will be performed at UCLA's facilities in Los Angeles, California. UCLA's parent organization is the State of California Controller's Office, which has also received federal contract and grant awards, including support for defense-related projects and scientific research.
