About this award

This federal grant award to the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) is valued at $135,000.00 and supports research into the rubble-pile nature of small solar system bodies. The award, identified as 80NSSC21K1531, is funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and has an end date of August 31, 2025. The grant does not have a set-aside designation.

UMD, a state-controlled institution of higher education, will leverage recent improvements to a state-of-the-art gravity and granular dynamics code to refine previous investigations regarding the surface characteristics of small celestial objects. As a leading research university, UMD has a strong track record of providing specialized scientific, engineering, and technical services to NASA and other federal agencies through both contracts and grants.

Description

This proposal is to make use of recent improvements to a state-of-the-art gravity and granular dynamics code to put tighter constraints on previous investigations regarding the rubble-pile nature of the surfaces of small solar system bodies.
