About this award
This is a $412,363.61 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), a prominent non-profit research and development organization. The grant is for electromagnetic sounding of the interior of Mars using the InSight and MAVEN spacecraft, which will complement the seismological and geodesy investigations by InSight and inform the principal structures in Mars' crust and mantle. This work is focused on determining the presence or absence of groundwater, which is pivotal to future Mars exploration. The grant has a period of performance through July 31, 2024. SwRI has extensive experience providing technical solutions to NASA and other federal agencies through both contracts and grants, and holds several important Indefinite Delivery Vehicle (IDV) contracts that enable efficient task order procurement across government agencies.
