About this award
This is a $70,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Seti Institute, a non-profit scientific organization, for research related to circumbinary planets (CBPs). CBPs are exoplanets that orbit two stars and exhibit fascinating properties that challenge planet formation and migration theories.
The grant supports scientific research, data analysis, and methodological development to further understand the origins and characteristics of CBPs. The Seti Institute has a history of federal contract and grant awards from NASA and the National Science Foundation (NSF) for projects related to astrobiology, planetary science, astronomy, and the search for extraterrestrial intelligence. This specific award does not have a socioeconomic set-aside designation.
The Seti Institute also holds an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) with NASA Headquarters, valued at up to $4.7 million through June 2025, to provide multidisciplinary technical support services for spaceflight hardware across the lifecycle, with a focus on planetary protection compliance.
