About this award

The Trustees of Princeton University was awarded a $406,476.57 research grant by NASA's Shared Services Center on August 1, 2020, to investigate the temporal evolution of the heliospheric energetic neutral atom (ENA) spectrum and understand its origin as a function of radial distance from the sun. The work will be performed at Princeton's Office of Research and Project Administration in Princeton, New Jersey, with a completion date of December 31, 2024. This grant represents a non-set-aside award for fundamental space science research, leveraging Princeton's extensive expertise in executing complex research initiatives across multiple disciplines for federal agencies.

Princeton University's selection for this award reflects its established capabilities in space exploration and scientific research. As a leading research institution with a long history of federal partnerships, Princeton has demonstrated substantial experience managing grants and contracts with agencies including NASA, NSF, and DOE across areas ranging from quantum computing to biomedical research. The heliospheric ENA investigation aligns with NASA's broader scientific objectives in understanding solar wind physics and the structure of the heliosphere, contributing to the agency's space science mission through advanced observational analysis and theoretical modeling.
