About this award

This federal grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to New Mexico State University (NMSU) is for a research project titled "EXPLAINING THE DENSITY DICHOTOMY OF KUIPER BELT OBJECTS WITH ICE AND SILICATE STREAMING INSTABILITY." The grant has a ceiling value of $365,590 and is set to run through December 31, 2025. NMSU, a public Hispanic-serving land-grant research university, will serve as the prime grantee for this research effort. The grant does not have a set-aside designation. NMSU has a long history of supporting NASA's missions and initiatives through research, technical assistance, and STEM education programs. This specific project aims to further understanding of the density variations observed in Kuiper Belt objects, which could provide insights into the formation and evolution of our solar system.
