About this award
This is a $344,439.83 research grant awarded by NASA to the University of Arizona, doing business as the Arizona Board of Regents. The grant aims to study the presence of subsurface oceans on several satellites in the solar system and how this affects their tidal dissipation, an important energy source. The University of Arizona is a public research university, 1862 land grant institution, and Hispanic Serving Institution located in Tucson, Arizona. As a state government entity and higher education institution, the University has an extensive portfolio of research and advisory services contracts and grants with federal agencies like NASA, NSF, NIH, DOD, USDA, and others. This grant does not have a set-aside designation. The University has collaborated with various partners on prior grants, including defense contractors, other universities, and industry.
Description
Several satellites in the solar system contain subsurface liquid layers, i.e. oceans, beneath their solid surfaces. The presence of these subsurface oceans affects tidal dissipation, an important energy source for satellite.
