- This is a federal grant award to Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), a nonprofit research and development organization based in San Antonio, Texas. The grant, valued at $99,495.55, was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to expand SwRI's capabilities for tidal stress modeling on Europa, one of Jupiter's moons. The work aims to incorporate layered structures, physical libration, and non-synchronous rotation into the tidal stress models, and to assess tectonic...
- This is a $1,911,117.00 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian federal agency, to the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) to conduct research on "Tracking 3D Ice Shell Evolution and Material Exchange at Europa." SwRI is a non-profit research and development organization based in San Antonio, Texas. The award has an ultimate completion date of December 10, 2026 and does not have a set-aside designation. As a prominent federal contractor, SwRI holds several Indefinite...
- This federal contract award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center is for a grant to the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) to support research on the detection of extant life on the surface of Europa, a moon of Jupiter. The award, valued at $1,536,514.47, is intended to determine the provenance of any lifeforms discovered, in order to better understand Europa's habitability and inform future exploration efforts. The contract does not have a...
- This federal contract award, valued at $283,498.55, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), a nonprofit research and development organization based in San Antonio, Texas. The contract is for a project that seeks to characterize, through physical analog modeling experiments, how icy planetary lithospheres respond to localized extension and the efficacy of tectonic processes in resurfacing icy moons. The project aims to...
- This is a $332,321.30 federal grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), a nonprofit research and development organization, to conduct observations and research related to the dynamic processes on the Galilean satellites of Jupiter. The objectives include follow-up observations of Io's molecular atmosphere, continued monitoring of Io's volcanic activity, and improved mapping of condensed oxygen on Europa's surface. This...
- This federal contract award, valued at $3,070,308.00, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), a non-profit research and development organization. The purpose of the contract is to advance a prototype instrument from Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 4 to TRL 6, enabling the identification and quantification of compounds of astrobiological significance in planetary gases and liquids, such as icy moon ocean water and the...
- This $88,161.27 grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Arizona State University (ASU) to conduct research on tidal-tectonic processes on Europa, one of Jupiter's moons. The research aims to improve understanding of Europa's interior structure and rotational history by incorporating rheology-dependent tidal stress equations into existing models and testing the predictions against observed geologic features. The work will assess the role of non-synchronous...
- This is a $627,651.00 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), a nonprofit research and development organization in San Antonio, Texas. The grant is for a research project titled "UNVEILING THE RADIOLYTIC ORIGINS OF EUROPAS DARK FAR ULTRAVIOLET ALBEDO" and has a period of performance through February 5, 2027. SwRI has extensive experience supporting federal agencies through complex prime and subcontract awards, providing...
- This is a $551,235 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), a nonprofit research organization headquartered in San Antonio, Texas. The grant is for research related to studying the subsurface liquid water oceans believed to exist on several moons in the outer solar system, which are considered prime targets for assessing planetary habitability. The grant does not have a set-aside designation, indicating it was a full...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center awarded a $161,315.00 grant to the Planetary Science Institute, a non-profit research organization, to conduct research on the geological and geophysical processes that drive material transport between the subsurface oceans and surfaces of icy moons such as Europa and Enceladus. The research aims to understand the habitability of these oceans and the potential for detecting biosignatures on the surface, which is...
