About this award
The University of Colorado, through its Office of Contracts and Grants, received a $568,939 grant award (Contract 21-HSR21_2-0071) from a civilian federal agency to conduct research on characterizing and understanding the molecular oxygen density structure of the lower thermosphere through observations and models. The research will be conducted in Boulder, Colorado, with an ultimate completion date of October 16, 2026. This award represents a non-competitive grant for research purposes and includes no set-aside designation, reflecting the university's demonstrated technical capabilities and competitive standing in federal research initiatives.
The project focuses on advancing understanding of atmospheric phenomena in the lower thermosphere, likely supporting broader national research priorities in space sciences and atmospheric research. As a prominent public research institution with extensive experience managing federal contracts and grants across multiple scientific domains, the University of Colorado is well-positioned to execute observational and modeling research in this specialized area. The university's established track record in space sciences, climate research, and collaborative federal research projects—including partnerships with institutions such as the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research—underscores its capability to deliver high-quality scientific research outcomes aligned with federal agency objectives.
