About this award
The Johns Hopkins University was awarded a $683,176 research grant (Contract 1-XRP21-0017) effective January 1, 2022, with a completion date of December 31, 2026. This grant supports a uniform reanalysis of Spitzer Space Telescope phase curve observations, building on nearly 60 phase curves collected at 3.6 and 4.5 microns for 30 unique exoplanets between the first exoplanet phase curve observation and the Spitzer mission's conclusion in January 2020. The work is funded through a civilian federal agency's Shared Services Center and will be performed at Johns Hopkins' Baltimore, Maryland facility. This award was made on a full and open competition basis with no small business set-aside designation.
As a premier research institution with extensive experience in space science investigations supported by federal agencies including NASA, Johns Hopkins brings significant expertise to exoplanet characterization and astronomical data analysis. The reanalysis effort addresses the critical need for consistency across the Spitzer dataset, enabling improved scientific insights from one of the most comprehensive infrared surveys of exoplanet thermal properties conducted to date. Johns Hopkins frequently executes similar space science research grants and serves as both a principal investigator institution and collaborative research partner across multiple federal research initiatives.
