About this award

This is a $451,299.00 grant award to Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), a nonprofit research organization based in San Antonio, Texas. The grant is from the Shared Services Center, a civilian federal agency, for research related to the formation of planetary systems. The award is not set aside and does not appear to be associated with a larger contract vehicle. SwRI has a significant history of federal contract and grant awards across various agencies, including the Department of Defense, NASA, and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, supporting research and engineering work in areas such as space science, energy, and nuclear safety. This particular grant seems to be focused on studying the early stages of star and planet formation, which is an important topic in planetary science relevant to NASA's space exploration mission.
