About this award

The Johns Hopkins University received a $1.19 million grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Shared Services Center to support research on the Scanning Coronal and Heliospheric Imager (SCAHI). The contract, awarded on March 1, 2024, with an ultimate completion date of February 28, 2027, represents a competitive, full and open procurement with no small business set-aside designation. Work will be performed in Baltimore, Maryland, leveraging Johns Hopkins' extensive expertise in space science research and advanced instrumentation development through its Applied Physics Laboratory.

This award aligns with NASA's broader heliophysics research priorities, which focus on understanding the Sun's corona and its impact on space weather and Earth's magnetosphere. Johns Hopkins brings substantial credentials in solar physics and space exploration research, having previously received numerous NASA grants for investigations ranging from solar isotope analysis to planetary exploration. The institution's Applied Physics Laboratory serves as a premier research facility specializing in complex space systems and scientific instrumentation, making it well-positioned to contribute to this coronal imaging initiative that enhances NASA's capability to observe and characterize solar phenomena.
