About this award

This is a $548,146.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) Office of Research Administration to study the evolution of superposed craters and terrain types on planetary surfaces. The award has no set-aside designation and will fund research activities at UCLA's facilities in Los Angeles, California through August 2025. As a public research university, UCLA has extensive experience supporting federal initiatives through contracts and grants, including work for the Departments of Health and Human Services, Defense, and Veterans Affairs. The State of California Controller's Office, which oversees UCLA's finances, serves as the parent organization for this award. This grant aligns with NASA's priorities in planetary science and will help characterize the homogenization of regolith on celestial bodies, contributing to our understanding of crater formation and evolution.

Description

By studying additional craters of varying ages, we will be able to characterize the evolution of superposed craters and the ejecta facies and terrain types thereby constraining the rates at which materials are homogenized into regolith.
