About this award
The Johns Hopkins University received a $2.06M research grant from a civilian federal agency to develop the Multispectral Imaging Compact Radiometer (MICR), a thermal imaging instrument designed for lunar exploration. The MICR integrates wide field-of-view, all-reflective optics with advanced thermal infrared detectors to enable high-quality thermal imaging and obtain accurate temperature measurements across the Moon's extreme thermal environment, where equatorial regions experience significant diurnal temperature variations. The award, issued on July 1, 2021, with an ultimate completion date of June 30, 2026, was not set aside for any specific business category and was awarded through competitive processes based on technical merit and expertise.
This grant supports Johns Hopkins' continued leadership in space exploration research, consistent with the university's extensive portfolio of federal research awards across scientific and engineering disciplines. The work will be performed at the university's Baltimore, Maryland facility and aligns with the institution's demonstrated capabilities in advanced technological development and aerospace applications, areas in which Johns Hopkins has established significant expertise through numerous federal contracts and grants with agencies including NASA and the Department of Defense.
