About this award

This is a grant awarded by a civilian U.S. government agency to The Johns Hopkins University, a private non-profit research university, for a stratospheric balloon mission called ASTHROS (Astrophysics Stratospheric Telescope for High Spectral Resolution Observations at Submillimeter-Wavelengths). The purpose of the mission is to enable detailed 3D mapping of ionized gas in star-forming regions of the Milky Way galaxy by observing specific spectral lines. The grant has a ceiling value of $3,047,210.89 and a completion date of August 29, 2024. The contract does not have a set-aside designation, indicating open competition. The Johns Hopkins University has extensive experience as a federal contractor and grantee, providing a range of sophisticated research and technical services across various domains for agencies like the Department of Defense, NASA, and the National Institutes of Health.

Description
