About this award
The University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) received a $471,057 research grant from a civilian federal agency's Shared Services Center to examine sampling of the best-preserved craters resulting from low-angle impact on the Moon. Under this grant, which was awarded on November 25, 2019, with an ultimate completion date of November 24, 2024, UAF will conduct a series of low-angle impact experiments at two premier research facilities: Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory's Planetary Impact Laboratory and NASA's Ames Vertical Gun Range. This research initiative aims to advance understanding of lunar crater formation and preservation mechanisms through controlled experimental analysis. The award utilizes no set-aside designation and is structured as a grant for research rather than a traditional procurement contract.
The research will be performed at UAF's facilities in Fairbanks, Alaska, leveraging the university's extensive experience as a land, sea, and space grant institution with specialized capabilities in scientific research and space exploration technologies. As a comprehensive public research university and Alaska's flagship institution of higher education, UAF maintains collaborative relationships with federal agencies including NASA and brings substantial expertise in complex research initiatives. This grant supports UAF's mission to advance scientific understanding through interdisciplinary research and represents the university's continued engagement in planetary science research funded by federal agencies.
