About this award

This is a $216,128 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the SETI Institute, a non-profit research organization. The grant is for research to constrain the evolution of Mars through Bayesian inference of impact craters above and below the Medusae Fossae Formation. This research will likely contribute to NASA's planetary science and astrobiology programs. The award does not utilize a set-aside designation, indicating the SETI Institute was selected based on its technical expertise. The SETI Institute has a history of federal contract and grant awards, including an Indefinite Delivery Contract with NASA Headquarters valued at $4.7 million and collaborations with prime contractors like Lockheed Martin Corporation. Through this grant, the SETI Institute will likely work with academic partners to further its research on the potential for life beyond Earth.
