About this award
The University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC) has been awarded a $70,000 research grant by NASA's Shared Services Center to model Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) full frame image background using neural networks. Designated as contract 23-TESS23-0027, this research grant is structured without a small business set-aside and will run through December 31, 2026. The work will be performed at UMBC's Baltimore, Maryland location under the university's Financial Services division.
This award supports UMBC's participation in NASA's broader exploration and science initiatives, which emphasize balanced scientific research guided by National Academies recommendations and congressional direction. The neural network modeling project contributes to TESS mission operations by improving the processing and analysis of full frame imagery, thereby enhancing the space telescope's capacity for exoplanet discovery and other astronomical observations. UMBC's extensive track record as a federal research contractor across multiple scientific domains, including astrophysics and advanced computational research, positions it well to execute this specialized technical contribution to NASA's science mission.
Description
