- This is a $114,846.10 training grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to Arizona State University (ASU) to study the role of oxidative weathering in the Great Oxidation Event, a key event in the oxygenation of Earth's atmosphere. The grant supports experiments to measure the kinetics of oxygen consumption by various rock types at low oxygen levels relevant to the Archean eon, prior to the oxygenation of the atmosphere. The goal is to...
- This is a $1,953,008 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Arizona State University (ASU) to conduct research on the early history of the solar system. The objective is to better understand processes in the solar nebula and on planetesimals through investigations of radiogenic isotope systematics, stable isotope systematics, and trace element geochemistry of primitive and differentiated meteorites. The research addresses NASA's Emerging Worlds program goals...
- Arizona State University was awarded a $374,620.96 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research related to oxygen isotope fractionation and self-shielding in the solar nebula. The research aims to improve understanding of how carbon monoxide (CO) self-shielding can explain enrichment of oxygen-17 and oxygen-18 in terrestrial planets and meteorites compared to the solar photosphere. The grant involves analyzing high-quality ultraviolet absorption...
- This is a $150,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Arizona State University (ASU), doing business as Orspa, for a research project titled "Tracking Extremophile Metabolisms: Lipid Synthesis in Response to Dynamic Environments." The grant is for a five-year period ending in December 2027. ASU, a comprehensive public research university, has a history of receiving federal awards from agencies such as NASA, the U.S. Air Force, the National...
- This is a $174,864 grant awarded to Arizona State University (ASU) by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) for a project titled "Breathing Mars Air: Stationary and Portable O2 Generation". The grant is for research and development related to oxygen generation systems for Mars exploration. ASU, a public research university located in Tempe, Arizona, has a history of receiving federal contract and grant awards from agencies such as NASA, the Department of Energy,...
- Arizona State University (ASU) was awarded a $656,899 research grant by a civilian federal agency with an ultimate completion date of February 15, 2025. The grant supports fundamental research in exobiology focused on understanding the evolution of photosynthesis, particularly anoxygenic photosynthesis relevant to early Earth and potentially common conditions on exoplanets. ASU's research team proposes to test a novel evolutionary hypothesis by creating photo/chemolithotrophic...
- Arizona State University (ASU), operating through its Office of Research and Sponsored Projects Administration (ORSPA), received a $175,664.47 research grant from a civilian federal agency with an ultimate completion date of January 14, 2025. The grant supports research to advance understanding of life's tolerance to low temperature and water availability, with direct applications to the search for life on Mars and other icy worlds. The work will be conducted in Tempe, Arizona, and no small...
- Arizona State University (ASU), through its Office of Research and Sponsored Projects Administration (Orspa), received a $147,853.34 research grant award (23-EXO23-0011) titled "Refining the Geochemical Toolkit for Paleoredox Reconstruction: Instrumentation Supplement." The award, issued by a civilian federal agency's Shared Services Center on December 6, 2023, supports scientific research to be conducted at ASU's Tempe, Arizona campus and is scheduled for completion by December 5,...
- This is a $101,984.72 grant awarded to Arizona State University (ASU) by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to study the formation and processing histories of presolar and early solar system nanomaterials. The grant has an ultimate completion date of October 4, 2023. ASU is the prime contractor, and there are no set-aside designations associated with this award. This grant supports NASA's research objectives in planetary science and the exploration of the early solar...
- This is a federal grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Arizona State University in Tempe, Arizona for the research project "PRESOLAR STARDUST IN THE EARLY SOLAR SYSTEM". The grant is valued at $112,107.00 and has a completion date of April 24, 2025. The contract type is a Grant for Research and there is no set-aside designation. As a comprehensive public research university, Arizona State University has extensive experience conducting...
This $704,133 NASA grant was awarded to Arizona State University (ASU) to conduct research related to the global redox state of the mid-Proterozoic oceans and its relationship to the evolution of early eukaryotes. The research aims to refine the use of uranium isotopes as a proxy to better constrain oxygen levels during this critical period in Earth's history. The work involves experimental studies, analysis of modern analogue environments, and integration with ASU's existing dataset on mid-Proterozoic carbonate uranium isotopes. This grant is a logical extension of prior NASA Exobiology support to the research team. No set-aside designations were identified for this award. As a comprehensive public research university, ASU has a long history of receiving federal contract and grant awards from agencies like NASA, NSF, and DOD to support scientific research, technology development, and other mission-critical activities.
