About this award
This federal contract award was issued by a civilian government agency to the Regents of the University of Minnesota, doing business as the Office of Sponsored Projects Administration. The $556,709.00 grant for research is focused on conducting laboratory experiments to provide a more quantitative understanding of the relationship between oxygen fugacities and Fe3+/FeT (the ratio of oxidized Fe3+ to total Fe) in Martian basalts and their sources. This research aims to improve the scientific understanding of Mars' geological composition and processes.
The award does not have a set-aside designation, indicating open competition. The University of Minnesota is a prominent land-grant research institution with a strong track record of executing federal grants and contracts across diverse scientific domains, including space exploration, medical research, and technological development. The university frequently collaborates with other academic and research institutions as a prime and subcontractor, showcasing its extensive capabilities and collaborative approach to address national research priorities.
