This is a $515,863 grant contract awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Field Museum of Natural History, doing business as the Research Center, located in Chicago, Illinois. The contract is for a project titled "Refractory Minerals - Archives from the Early Solar System" and runs from January 1, 2021, through December 31, 2024. The contract is a grant for research and does not involve any set-aside designation or...
This is a $452,580.81 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) to conduct interdisciplinary research on the formation and early evolution of the solar system, with a focus on investigating the physics and chemistry of solid and liquid material formation in the protoplanetary disk, and how those materials accreted into larger bodies. The research combines astrophysical-cosmochemical theory and modeling, petrological...
This is a $1,289,957.12 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Arizona for a research project titled "Origins of Refractory Material in Stellar Systems from an Atomistic to a Macroscale Perspective." The grant is part of NASA's Emerging Worlds program, which supports research aimed at understanding the formation and early evolution of the solar system. The project will use a multifaceted approach integrating nanoscale analytical...
This is a $1,240,000 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Chicago, a leading research university, to conduct scientific research on the early solar system and its precursors. The research aims to better understand the nature and timing of mixing and nebular processing in the early solar system, the sources of dust in the solar nebula, stellar nucleosynthesis, and the chronology of the first few million years of...
This is a $513,931 federal grant awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center to the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) in New York, NY. The grant is for a research project titled "READ BETWEEN THE LINES: DETERMINING ATMOSPHERE AND BULK COMPOSITIONS FOR PLANETARY MASS OBJECTS USING SPECTRAL RETRIEVALS" with a period of performance through December 31, 2025. AMNH is a renowned scientific and educational institution that conducts extensive research across multiple scientific...
This is a $565,000 research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Chicago. The grant supports a study on the isotopic composition of refractory lithophile elements in the earliest solar system materials, including refractory inclusions and chondrites. The goal is to better understand the nebular processes that controlled the chemical fractionation and mixing of elements during the formation of the solar system and the subsequent...
This is a grant award to the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) for a project titled "Non-Destructive Analysis of Comet Grains and Tracks: Minerals and Original Grain Properties". The $389,909.47 award will fund the use of three non-destructive 3D imaging and analysis techniques - laser scanning confocal microscopy, stereo X-ray fluorescence chemical mapping, and laser Raman microscopy - to study comet grains...
The U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $704,081 grant for research to the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) in New York City. The grant will support AMNH in executing a balanced science program that aligns with discipline-specific guidance from the National Academies, NASA's exploration initiatives, and Congressional direction.
