About this award
The Regents of the University of Colorado at Boulder was awarded a $423,569 research grant by a civilian federal agency's Shared Services Center on June 1, 2020, to develop a miniaturized electron telescope designated the Medium Energy Electron Telescope (MEET). This instrument is designed to fit within a 1U CubeSat form factor (10x10x10 cubic centimeters) to measure electrons in the 30-400 kiloelectron volt energy range within Earth's inner radiation belt. The contract, which was not subject to any set-aside designation, was structured as a grant for research with a completion date of November 30, 2024, and performance location in Boulder, Colorado.
As a prominent public research university with extensive federal contract and grant experience across space sciences and advanced instrumentation, the University of Colorado is well-positioned to develop this specialized space-based scientific payload. The university's collaborative approach to federal research, demonstrated through partnerships with institutions such as MIT and various NASA centers, supports its capacity to execute complex space technology development projects. This MEET instrument represents part of broader efforts to enhance scientific observation capabilities for studying Earth's radiation environment through compact, accessible CubeSat platforms.
