- This is a federal grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the SETI Institute, a non-profit scientific organization, to conduct research on the compositional and structural evolution of Saturn's rings. The grant, valued at $359,145.00, aims to understand how Saturn's rings are affected by micrometeoroid bombardment and the resulting impact ejecta. The research will leverage publicly available data from the Cassini mission, including measurements from the...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration awarded a $501,780 grant contract to Southwest Research Institute of San Antonio, Texas. The contract supports research to analyze imagery from the Cassini spacecraft documenting the surfaces of Saturn's moons, including Titan and Enceladus. Southwest Research Institute will leverage its expertise in planetary science to study images capturing terrain at scales finer than one kilometer per pixel and help advance NASA's goals of exploring and...
- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) to carry out data analysis and interpretation of observations from the Cassini spacecraft at Saturn. The research aims to investigate the source, loss, energization, and transport mechanisms of plasma and energetic electron populations in Saturn's magnetosphere, in order to better understand their origins and spatial distributions. The grant, valued at $208,896.20,...
- This federal contract award, valued at $262,416.00, was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the SETI Institute, a non-profit scientific organization. The contract supports research related to Saturn's rings, with the following key tasks: Analyzing the evolving orbits of propeller moons around Saturn to better understand the interactions between disks and embedded masses. Detecting and investigating impact-generated ejecta clouds in Saturn's rings to probe the...
- This is a $340,982 grant awarded 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 grant is for the project titled "ENCELADUS: IS THERE ACTIVITY WE'RE MISSING?" and has a period of performance through March 31, 2026. SwRI is a prominent federal contractor, providing scientific and engineering services to various government agencies. This...
- This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Planetary Science Institute (PSI), a non-profit research organization based in Tucson, Arizona. The purpose of the grant is to investigate the free normal modes and irregular structures observed at the edges of Saturn's rings, building on prior kinematical modeling work by the research team. The award amount is $324,988.00 and the performance period runs from April 19, 2016 to April 18, 2020. This work...
- This is a grant awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian federal agency, to the Seti Institute, a non-profit scientific organization. The $122,063 grant is for a research project titled "Analysis of Saturn's Rings Dark Material from VIMS Data." The goal is to analyze the spectral signature of the non-icy materials in Saturn's rings and perform a comparative analysis of these components as a function of distance from the planet. The research aims to contribute to the...
- The SETI Institute, a non-profit scientific research organization headquartered in Mountain View, California, was awarded a $628,768 research grant by NASA (through its Shared Services Center) on January 1, 2023, to investigate irregular vertical structures discovered at the edges of Saturn's A and B rings. The award, with an ultimate completion date of December 31, 2026, supports research that enhances the scientific return of the Cassini mission by analyzing imaging observations and their...
- This is a $481,501.00 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), a nonprofit research organization, for a project titled "Constraining the Structure, Evolution, and Dynamics of Titan's Atmospheric Boundary Layer."
