About this award

The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York has been awarded a $362,626 grant by a federal civilian agency's Shared Services Center to support the first six years of operation of the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC) at the Lagrange point. The award, issued on February 10, 2022, with a completion date of February 9, 2025, represents a non-set-aside contract awarded through open competition. Work will be performed at Columbia University's location in New York, NY 10027, with the university's Sponsored Projects Administration Division serving as the administrative entity.

This research grant supports continued operations and analysis of DSCOVR's EPIC instrument, which provides critical Earth observation data from the L1 Lagrange point approximately one million miles from Earth. The EPIC camera captures full-disk imagery of Earth and contributes essential data for climate monitoring, weather forecasting, and atmospheric science research. Columbia University's involvement reflects its established role as a premier federal research partner, with demonstrated expertise across diverse scientific domains including climate science, earth observation, and space-based research initiatives aligned with national priorities in environmental monitoring and climate observation.
