About this award

The University of New Hampshire (UNH), a division of the University System of New Hampshire, received a $1.19 million research grant from a civilian federal agency's Shared Services Center, awarded on February 2, 2022, with completion targeted for December 30, 2026. The grant supports development of new in-situ instrumentation capable of measuring winds in planetary atmospheres at the location of the host spacecraft. This work aligns with space exploration and atmospheric science priorities, leveraging UNH's established expertise in space research and scientific instrumentation development. The award includes no set-aside designation, reflecting UNH's competitive capabilities in advanced technology development.

UNH will perform the work at its Lee, New Hampshire location. The university brings substantial experience in federal research partnerships, particularly with NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, with prior involvement in space weather instrument development and related scientific initiatives. As a land-grant research institution with extensive federal contracting experience across aerospace, environmental science, and advanced technologies, UNH is well-positioned to deliver the proposed instrumentation development within the grant period.

Description

The proposed work develops new instrumentation that will be capable of measuring winds in planetary atmospheres. The instruments measure the winds in situ, meaning they measure the winds at the location of their host spacecraft.
