- This is a $438,975.52 grant for research awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), an independent, nonprofit research and development organization. The grant is intended to fund research to understand the frequency and conditions of magnetic reconnection at Saturn's magnetopause. The research will analyze data from the Cassini spacecraft's Electron Spectrometer (ELS) instrument to determine the occurrence rate of magnetic...
This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), a nonprofit research and development organization based in San Antonio, Texas. The grant, valued at $95,644.60, is for research related to the Cassini spacecraft's observations of the active south polar region of Saturn's moon Enceladus. The research aims to accurately constrain the endogenic heat flow from this region, which has proven challenging due to the combination of passive (solar) and endogenic heat sources. This grant does not have a small business set-aside designation. SwRI has a history of providing a wide range of research, development, and testing services to government agencies, including NASA, the Department of Energy, and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, often through prime and subcontract federal awards.
