About this award
Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) was awarded a $411,741 grant by a civilian federal agency on May 21, 2024, to process nearly nine Mars years of global color imaging data collected by the Mars Color Imager (MARCI) instrument for the planetary science community. The grant, designated 23-PDART23-0010, is scheduled for completion by August 31, 2027, and will be performed at SwRI's San Antonio, Texas facility. This award carries no set-aside designation and represents a continuation of SwRI's substantial involvement in Mars exploration research and planetary science investigations.
The grant falls within NASA's broader planetary science program, leveraging SwRI's extensive expertise in space mission support and data processing for Martian surface and atmospheric studies. MARCI data processing contributes critical information to the scientific community's understanding of Mars' climate, weather patterns, and surface conditions. SwRI's role as a prime grantee on this project aligns with the organization's established track record of managing multi-million dollar research awards from NASA's Science Mission Directorate and collaborating with academic institutions to advance planetary exploration objectives.
