About this award
The U.S. government agency NASA awarded a $510,681 grant to the Planetary Science Institute, a non-profit research institute, to conduct a photometric study on how the surface physical properties of Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko change with its perihelion passage. This research could provide clues toward understanding the surface evolution of Jupiter Family Comets. The grant does not have a set-aside designation. Planetary Science Institute has been the prime recipient of numerous federal grants from NASA and NSF focused on advancing planetary science, astronomy, earth sciences, and related fields through activities such as data analysis, modeling, mission support, and archiving. This grant-funded work aims to further NASA's goals in planetary exploration and expand fundamental scientific knowledge.
