- This federal contract is a $536,818.72 grant awarded by NASA to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), which operates the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). The grant supports a research project to study the atmospheric loss and evolution of exoplanets and exomoons through their interactions with stellar winds and magnetospheres. The research aims to build models that will benefit the broader exoplanetary community and contribute to NASA's Habitable Worlds...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $134,683.79 grant to the Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado's Office of Contracts and Grants Division, to study the habitable zones of organic-rich atmospheres on planets around different star types. The research will examine the complex feedbacks between organic gases and aerosols and their effects on planetary climates, which will refine the concept of the habitable zone. This...
- This is a $379,143 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Colorado (CU) for research to characterize the stellar X-ray and ultraviolet emissions of exoplanets that may be habitable, in support of NASA's Habitable Worlds Observatory mission. The grant was awarded on October 1, 2023 and has a period of performance through September 30, 2026. CU, a prominent public research university, has a robust portfolio of federal...
- This is a $268,102.03 grant awarded to the University of Chicago by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to study the origin of the volatile envelopes of small-radius exoplanets. The purpose is to improve understanding of the chemical and physical processes that govern exoplanet surfaces, interiors, and atmospheres, as well as the origins of their volatiles. The research will combine models of planet thermal evolution and outgassing to explore two scenarios for how water...
- This is a $479,712.43 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division. The grant is for a three-year research project to study the mechanisms of hydrogen loss from the atmospheres of Venus and Mars, with the goal of improving understanding of how water has been depleted from these planets over solar system history. The research will couple...
- This is a $395,773.83 grant awarded by NASA to The Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division, a public research university. The purpose of the grant is to characterize changes in the neutral atmosphere during geomagnetic storms in order to improve the modeling of ion-neutral interactions in the topside ionosphere. This research supports NASA's Living With a Star (LWS) program goals of developing the scientific...
- The U.S. government agency NASA awarded a $1,285,295.70 grant to the University of Colorado, a U.S. state government entity and accredited public research university, to fund a Drive Science Center (DSC) research project. The project aims to determine whether a global magnetic field is essential for the retention of a substantial atmosphere on a planet, and therefore for the planet's surface habitability. This grant award is not associated with a set-aside contract vehicle. The University of...
- This is a $313,865 grant awarded by NASA to the Planetary Science Institute (PSI), a non-profit research organization in Tucson, Arizona. The grant is for a multi-pronged 3D modeling effort to understand the habitability of rocky planets in our solar system over time and to inform the detection and characterization of habitable exoplanets. The research aims to explore key dynamic components of planetary atmospheres, including atmospheric and oceanic heat transport, cloud variability, and the...
- This is a $99,026.88 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc. (AURA), operating as the Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI). The grant is for a research project titled "Rocky Planet Habitability: Insights from Solar System Climate Dynamics Through Time," which aims to produce new 3D models to understand the habitability of rocky planets in our solar system and inform the detection...
- This is a $3,256,304.08 grant awarded by NASA to the University of Colorado for research related to understanding the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) radiation output of nearby stars and its impact on exoplanet atmospheres. The grant will fund two additional flights of the Dual-channel Extreme Ultraviolet Continuum Experiment (DEUCE) payload to (1) complete an ionizing radiation census of local B-stars and (2) obtain the first EUV spectra of the nearest main-sequence stars, including potential...
