About this award
This federal contract award, valued at $114,321.00, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to The Pinhead Institute, Inc., a non-profit organization focused on science education and research. The project will combine data from the Lunar Atmosphere and Dust Environment Explorer (LADEE) Ultraviolet-Visible Spectrometer (UVS) with exospheric models to achieve scientific objectives related to detecting previously undetected metals in the lunar exosphere and understanding the spatial and temporal structure of gaseous metals and atomic oxygen. This award is not associated with a set-aside contract and is a grant for research, with a period of performance through May 9, 2025. The Pinhead Institute has received other prime federal grants from NASA Shared Services for research related to the origins of Pluto's surface dark materials and the surface composition of Triton.
Description
The project will combine lunar atmosphere and dust environment explorer (ladee) ultraviolet-visible spectrometer (UVS) data with exospheric models to achieve the following scientific objectives:. 1. Discover or establish more stringent limits for previously undetected metals (SI, AL, MG, CA, TI, FE) in the lunar exosphere; . 2. Determine the spatial and temporal structure of gaseous metals and atomic oxygen, and understand the processes that control their distribution and variability. .preliminary analyses shown in this proposal demonstrate that UVS data reveal not only detections, but also offer spatial and temporal resolution sufficient to fulfill these objectives. .
