About this award
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $667,396 grant to The Johns Hopkins University to determine the limits of life and stress response mechanisms of extremophilic microorganisms under dynamic conditions relevant to major impact events. No set-aside designation was specified. This research aligns with NASA's goals of advancing scientific knowledge of the origins of life and potential habitability of other worlds. Through analyzing how extremophiles respond to simulated high-stress planetary events, Johns Hopkins will provide insights to help NASA evaluate the resilience and distribution of life in extreme space environments. The contract was awarded on February 14, 2020 with a completion date of February 13, 2024 and will be performed in Baltimore, Maryland.
