About this award
This is a $498,626 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University Enterprises Corporation at California State University, San Bernardino. The grant is for a research project titled "From Meteors to Mesospheric Clouds with MMX" which aims to study the hydrological and dust cycles in the Martian atmosphere using observations from the Martian Moons eXploration (MMX) spacecraft.
The project will draw on previous Mars atmospheric observations from NASA's MAVEN, ESA's TGO, and the UAE's EMM missions to understand water and dust transport processes. It will use the OROCHI and MIRS instruments on MMX to observe Martian clouds and aerosols, and the CMDM instrument to study interplanetary and co-orbiting dust particles. The goal is to better constrain models of the Martian climate system and the dust environment that impacts the formation and evolution of the Martian moons. This grant does not have a set-aside designation.
