- This is a $98,446.55 research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Purdue University, a not-for-profit educational institution. The grant is to study the effects of space weathering on the surfaces of airless bodies such as asteroids, moons, and planetary surfaces. The research will examine how micrometeorite impacts and solar wind irradiation continuously modify these surfaces. The grant has an August 2023 completion date and was awarded in August 2020....
- This $129,623.56 training grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Purdue University to conduct research on space weathering effects on minerals found in asteroid regoliths. The work involves laboratory simulations of micrometeorite impacts and solar wind irradiation on sulfides and iron oxides, as well as analysis of naturally space-weathered samples returned from the JAXA Hayabusa mission. The goal is to better understand how space weathering processes...
- Purdue University received a $458,327 civilian research grant from a federal agency's Shared Services Center, awarded on October 26, 2020, with completion targeted for October 25, 2024. The grant supports investigation into space weathering processes that alter the composition, microstructure, and optical properties of grains on airless celestial body surfaces. The research specifically focuses on examining the role of sulfides and iron-oxide minerals in the space weathering of asteroidal...
- This is a $133,245.21 grant awarded by a civilian federal agency, the Shared Services Center, to Purdue University for research on the phenomenon of space weathering of carbon-rich asteroidal regolith through experimental simulations and analysis of returned samples. The research is being conducted by student Dara Laczniak. The grant has an ultimate completion date of August 31, 2024. Purdue University is a prominent 1862 Land Grant College and not-for-profit educational institution that...
- Purdue University received a $200,000 research grant from a civilian federal agency through its Shared Services Center mechanism, with performance to be completed by December 31, 2027. The research focuses on developing a comprehensive model for space weathering across the solar system, examining the two primary physical processes that drive this phenomenon: micrometeoroid impacts and irradiation by energetic ions from the solar wind. The award, which commenced on January 1, 2026, will be...
- This is a $685,198 cooperative agreement awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Purdue University to conduct research on "Solving the Mystery of Space Weathering on Carbonaceous Asteroids Through the Analysis of Samples from Ryugu". The research project will run through April 16, 2027. Purdue University, a non-profit educational institution, is the prime contractor on this award with no set-aside designations mentioned. This award supports NASA's mission...
- This is a $464,000 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Purdue University, a public land-grant research university, for the purpose of further developing techniques to measure and interpret cosmic-ray-produced (cosmogenic) nuclides in samples returned from asteroids, the Moon, and other planetary bodies. The work will leverage Purdue's gas-filled-magnet (GFM) capability to enable highly sensitive and precise measurements of nuclides like beryllium-10,...
