- This federal contract award is a grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Lowell Observatory, a private non-profit research institution located in Flagstaff, Arizona. The $101,002.95 grant is for research related to the study of near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) and comets. Specifically, the research aims to characterize the physical properties and potential activity of dormant comets and near-Sun asteroids, which have important implications for...
- This is a $292,831 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center of NASA to the Lowell Observatory, a private non-profit research institution in Flagstaff, Arizona. The grant is for research on small bodies in the solar system, as these remnants from the formation of our solar system can provide insights into its early phases and exoplanetary systems. The grant does not have a set-aside designation. Lowell Observatory has extensive experience conducting astronomical research under federal...
- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to Lowell Observatory, a private non-profit research institution located in Flagstaff, Arizona. The $731,972 grant funds research into the chemical composition and physical properties of comets, which can provide insights into the early solar system and the evolution of life on Earth. The research will utilize a variety of observational techniques, including imaging, photometry, and...
- This is a $89,624 grant awarded by NASA to the Lowell Observatory, a private non-profit research institution in Flagstaff, Arizona. The grant is for a project focused on obtaining astrometric measurements of distant solar system objects such as Kuiper Belt Objects and Centaurs, in order to improve their orbital solutions and ephemerides. This will enable more efficient targeted observations of these faint objects using large ground-based and space-based telescopes. The grant is part of NASA's...
- This is a $818,989.00 grant awarded by the NASA Shared Services Center to Lowell Observatory, a private non-profit research institution located in Flagstaff, Arizona. The grant is to support a three-year stellar-occultation program with the following objectives: (i) observe occultations by Pluto to understand its changing atmosphere, (ii) observe occultations by Kuiper Belt Objects to compute their radii and albedos and probe for atmospheres, satellites, and potential ring systems, and (iii)...
- This is a $492,938.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Lowell Observatory, a private non-profit research institution located in Flagstaff, Arizona. The grant, which has a performance period ending on September 30, 2025, will fund research to investigate how high activity levels of comets affect the structure and dynamics of their surrounding comas (the cloud of gas and dust surrounding the comet's nucleus). The research...
- This federal contract award, with ID NNX16AG52G, was granted by the NASA Shared Services Center to Lowell Observatory, a private non-profit research institution located in Flagstaff, Arizona. The $560,411.00 grant is intended to develop a new system from the existing ASTORB catalog to accumulate and centralize minor planet characterization data, provide observational planning tools, and enable real-time updates through a crowdsourcing approach. This work is highly relevant to the NASA PDART...
- This is a $423,447.00 grant award to Lowell Observatory, a private non-profit research institution located in Flagstaff, Arizona. The grant is from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center and does not have a set-aside designation. The grant requires Lowell Observatory to execute a balanced science program based on guidance from the National Academies, administration priorities, and congressional direction. The observatory will participate as a key...
- This is a $154,704 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to Lowell Observatory, a non-profit research institution in Flagstaff, Arizona.
