- This is a $458,999.99 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California San Diego (UCSD) Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The award supports research to improve understanding of the timing and processes involved in the formation and differentiation of the Moon and the parent bodies of eucrite meteorites. The research aims to address key questions about the abundances and distribution of highly siderophile elements, as well as the...
- This is a federal grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California San Diego (UCSD) Scripps Institution of Oceanography, with a total ceiling value of $770,203.00. The grant supports a research project titled "The Petrogenesis of Basalts from Mars and the Moon," which aims to examine the origin and evolution of Mars and the Moon through the study of meteorite samples. The research focuses on understanding the petrogenetic...
- The University of California San Diego, through its Scripps Institution of Oceanography, received a $792,136 grant award (20-SSW20-0008) from a civilian federal agency to conduct research on the influence of impact processes on volatile abundances in and on the Moon. The research focuses on understanding volatile inventories on planetary surfaces and interiors, which is critical for modeling initial building blocks, magmatic processes, and the development of planetary cryospheres,...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $199,971.41 grant to the University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC) to support research on asteroidal meteorites and their implications for exoplanet atmospheres and early planetary formation. Specifically, the grant will fund the establishment of cosmochemistry and scanning electron microscope laboratories at UCSC to conduct experiments constraining the timing of fluid activity in early planetesimals and the initial abundance of...
- This federal contract award, NNX16AD34G, was granted by the Shared Services Center (part of NASA) to the University of California, Davis (UC Davis) to support expanded investigations into planetary materials to shed new light on their petrogenetic relationships. The $618,000 grant will fund research to measure chromium and titanium isotopes in a wider range of samples, including iron meteorites and pallasites, in order to establish a comparative chronology anchored to uranium-lead dating. The...
- This is a $91,150.99 grant award to the University of California, Davis (UC Davis) from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to study the origins and evolution of differentiated asteroids. The primary objective is to improve understanding of the asteroids that produced mafic achondrites, a type of stony meteorite, through coordinated petrologic, geochemical, and isotopic analyses. The research aims to develop criteria for evaluating the number of asteroids contributing...
- This federal contract award, valued at $329,379.47, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) to conduct a comparative study of cratered terrains on the Moon, Mars, and Mercury. The study aims to disentangle the factors that contribute to the differences observed in these heavily cratered surfaces across the three planetary bodies, using quantitative topographic analysis and computer modeling. The research aligns...
- This federal contract award, with ID NNX16AD33G, was granted by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD). The $359,500.00 grant supports UCSD's research on "Emerging Comets from Protoplanetary Processes Relevance: Solar System Formation." The key objectives are to: 1) assess the range of comet dust properties in the early solar system, 2) constrain the presence of high-temperature...
