About this award
This federal contract award, with a ceiling value of $449,329.00, was granted by the Shared Services Center (a civilian federal agency) to the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) to conduct research on identifying exoplanet surfaces using atmospheric trace species in super-Earth atmospheres. The research aims to explore the atmospheric evolution of intermediate-sized exoplanets, with a focus on developing a surface identification framework to help find potentially habitable super-Earths, which is relevant to the agency's Habitable Worlds program. The contract is a grant for research and does not have a set-aside designation, allowing UTSA to leverage its specialized expertise in this domain. UTSA, as a subsidiary of the University of Texas System, has a history of securing federal contracts and grants for advanced research across various scientific and technological areas.
