The contract is for research related to the presence and orientation of polygonal impact craters, which can provide insights into the pre-impact fracture patterns of...
- This federal contract award, valued at $228,464.00, was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the SETI Institute, a non-profit scientific organization focused on astrobiology, planetary science, and the search for extraterrestrial intelligence. The contract, titled "Radar Speckle Investigations of Near-Earth Asteroid Spin States," aims to continue the Institute's work using radar speckle tracking to characterize the spin states and shapes of near-Earth...
- This federal contract award, with an ID of NCC21162, was issued by a U.S. government agency to the Seti Institute, a non-profit scientific organization, for a project titled "THEORETICAL ASTROCHEMISTRY: INTERSTELLAR CLOUDS, STAR FORMATION, COMETS AND METEORITES". The $484,078.00 cooperative agreement, which had an ultimate completion date of April 17, 2006, did not involve any set-aside designation. The Seti Institute, which specializes in astrobiology, planetary science, astronomy,...
- This federal contract award, valued at $165,220.00, was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the SETI Institute, a non-profit scientific research organization. The contract is a Cooperative Agreement (not a set-aside) to execute a balanced science program, participate as a key partner in NASA's exploration initiatives, and advance discovery in emerging fields. The SETI Institute will focus on scientific research of, on, and from the Moon, lunar orbit, Mars, and...
- This is a federal grant award to the Seti Institute, a non-profit scientific organization, for a research project on chondrites, comets, and the origins of water, volatiles, and organics in the early solar system. The award, valued at $500,392.00, was made by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and has an ultimate completion date of January 1, 2024. The Seti Institute has received multiple federal contract and grant awards from NASA and the National Science Foundation to...
- This is a $294,396.00 grant awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center to the SETI Institute, a non-profit scientific research organization, to contribute to the understanding of dynamical processes acting on small binary asteroids. The grant does not utilize any set-aside designations. The SETI Institute holds a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) with NASA Headquarters, valued at $4.7 million, which provides multidiscipline technical support services throughout the lifecycle of...
- This is a $127,721 cooperative agreement awarded by NASA to the SETI Institute, a non-profit research organization. The overarching goal is to investigate and understand the composition, origin, evolution, and chemical processes occurring on the surfaces and in the atmospheres of cold solar system objects. The contract leverages the expertise and synergy of a team of experimentalists, theoreticians, and astronomers, as well as unique capabilities at NASA Ames Research Center and NASA Goddard...
This federal contract award, valued at $383,430.00, was made by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the SETI Institute, a non-profit scientific organization. The contract, titled "SCIENTIFIC OBJECTIVES: COMETS AND PRIMITIVE ASTEROIDS LOOSE MASS MOSTLY IN THE FORM OF LARGE CM-DM SIZED DUST GRAINS. MOST MASS IN THE ZODIACAL CLOUD IS IN THE FORM OF TINY 0.1-MM SIZED GRAINS. WHAT PROCESSES ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR TURNING ONE INTO THE OTHER?", aims to investigate the dynamics of evolved meteoroid streams and understand the processes that determine the evolution of dust grains after ejection from comets and primitive asteroids. The work is relevant to NASA's Solar System Workings program and helps understand the meteoroid impact hazard to satellites and the dynamical properties of meteoroids impacting planetary surfaces. The contract does not have a set-aside designation and is scheduled for completion by February 21, 2024.
