About this award
The Regents of the University of Michigan, through its Office of Research and Sponsored Projects Division, received a $100,000 research grant (Contract 23-PLANET23-0069) from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration to support astronomical research focused on imaging the inner astronomical unit of planet-forming disks using a new near-infrared combiner instrument at the CHARA Array. The award, presented on August 31, 2024, with a completion date of August 31, 2026, represents competitively awarded funding with no set-aside designation. Research activities will be conducted at the university's Ann Arbor, Michigan campus.
This grant aligns with NASA's broader astronomical research priorities in exoplanet science and the characterization of protoplanetary disks, which are critical for understanding planetary formation mechanisms and identifying potentially habitable environments. The University of Michigan's substantial research infrastructure, including its established expertise in astronomical observation and data analysis, positions the institution well to contribute advanced instrumental capabilities to the CHARA Array, a leading optical and infrared interferometry facility. No subcontractors were identified in this award documentation.
