About this award

Arizona State University (ASU), operating through its Orspa division, received a $436,192 research grant from a civilian federal agency with a shared services center function, awarded on January 1, 2021. The grant supports investigation into the origin of hydrogen isotope composition variability observed in lunar apatites within and among lunar basalts, with work performed at ASU's Tempe, Arizona campus and an ultimate completion date of December 31, 2026. This award carries no set-aside designation and reflects ASU's recognized capabilities in space science research and advanced scientific investigation.

The grant represents part of ASU's broader portfolio of federally funded research initiatives spanning multiple scientific disciplines. As a comprehensive public research university and Hispanic-serving institution, ASU serves as a significant research partner for federal agencies including NASA, the National Science Foundation, and the National Institutes of Health. The university's work on lunar sample analysis contributes to broader efforts to understand the Moon's geological composition and the history of water and volatile delivery to celestial bodies, areas of strategic importance to NASA's lunar exploration programs and scientific objectives.

Description

The primary objective of the work proposed here is to better understand the origin of the variability in hydrogen isotope compositions that has previously been observed in lunar apatites within and among lunar basalts.
