- This is a $2,435,272.96 research grant awarded by NASA to the University of Arizona, doing business as the Arizona Board of Regents, to demonstrate the field sensitivity of a short-baseline seismic array for detecting seismicity, ice-water boundaries, and ice properties in terrestrial analogs for ocean worlds like Europa and Enceladus. The grant supports field testing of a commercial off-the-shelf seismometer device to quantify mission requirements for future robotic exploration of ocean worlds,...
- The University of Arizona, doing business as the Arizona Board of Regents, was awarded a $160,933.98 grant by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to investigate the viability of a seismic experiment on a potential Europa Lander mission, a future ocean worlds exploration effort. The grant, titled "THE SIIOS PSTAR," aims to develop operational techniques and quantify the science return of the proposed SIIOS experiment. This award does not have a set-aside...
- This federal contract award was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Arizona State University (ASU) to mature a miniature broadband seismometer for deployment on Jupiter's moon Europa. The goal is to develop a seismic instrument capable of probing the properties of Europa's ice shell and interior structure, and recording current activity, in support of a potential future Europa lander mission. The $2,337,679.69 grant, titled "Studies of Landed Mission...
- 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...
- The University of Arizona, operating under the Arizona Board of Regents, has been awarded a $2,739,465 firm fixed price grant by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center. The grant aims to advance development of a lunar geophysical network through innovative seismic sensors and deployment methods that can overcome limitations of sparse instrumentation and improve upon data quality from Apollo-era sensors. Specifically, the University will research and develop a...
- This is a $278,606.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Arizona, a public research university in Tucson, Arizona, to investigate the geology and internal structure of Callisto, one of Jupiter's major icy moons. The research aims to enhance understanding of planetary differentiation and evolution. The grant does not have a set-aside designation. The University of Arizona has extensive capabilities in astrophysics, planetary science, and...
- This contract award is for a $135,000 research grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Arizona State University (ASU) to study the formation and evolution of Europa's deep interior. Europa is one of Jupiter's moons and has been a focus of scientific research following NASA's Galileo mission. The award does not have a set-aside designation. As a major public research university, ASU has a long history of receiving federal research grants and contracts from...
- This is a $1,981,791.35 grant award to the University of Arizona, doing business as the Arizona Board of Regents, to develop the Cold-Lightweight Imagers for Europa (C-LIFE) instrument suite. The C-LIFE suite includes a Color Context Reconnaissance Stereoscopic Imager (CRSI) and a Uniocular Color Microscopic Imager (MI) to support the Europa Lander mission. The goals of this award are to mature the electronics design, conduct radiation modeling and testing, and ensure the C-LIFE components...
- The University of Arizona, operating under the Arizona Board of Regents, was awarded a $3.1 million research grant by a civilian federal agency on February 1, 2023, for the development of a seismometer to investigate interior asteroid structure. The project, designated E014042 and MATISE22_2-0018, will be performed in Tucson, Arizona, with an ultimate completion date of January 31, 2027. This award carries no set-aside designation, reflecting the university's competitive standing in federal...
- This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Arizona, doing business as the Arizona Board of Regents, in the amount of $432,130.05. The grant supports research to develop theoretical formalisms for understanding the role of tidal energy dissipation in the long-term evolution of subsurface oceans on icy satellites in the solar system. The research aims to account for the effects of a solid lid on ocean dynamics and the impact of inertial...
