About this award
Planetary Science Institute (PSI), a non-profit research organization based in Tucson, Arizona, received a $315,650 grant award (22-PDAR22-0001) from a civilian federal agency for fundamental planetary science research. The grant, awarded on April 1, 2023, with an ultimate completion date of March 31, 2026, supports the development of a geologic map of Aram Chaos, a region on Mars. This deliverable is intended to serve as a community resource to facilitate and support future scientific investigations on the Martian surface. No set-aside designation was applied to this competitively awarded grant.
PSI's work on this project aligns with the organization's extensive experience in planetary science research, data analysis, and geological mapping of Martian features. The institute frequently collaborates with university partners and conducts research supported by NASA's Science Mission Directorate, focusing on advancing scientific understanding of solar system bodies through detailed, methodical investigations. The geologic mapping of Aram Chaos will contribute to the broader body of knowledge regarding Mars surface processes and geology, supporting NASA's planetary exploration objectives and enabling future mission planning and scientific discovery on Mars.
