About this award

NASA has awarded a $124,867 grant to the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) to support Earth science activities aligned with NASA's geodesy and geosphere research priorities. This single-source award, effective from March 1, 2026 through February 28, 2027, represents a continuation of NAS's established role as a primary advisor to federal agencies on scientific and technical matters. The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine will leverage its extensive network of subject matter experts to conduct consensus studies, convene expert panels, and provide specialized technical assessments that inform NASA's strategic initiatives in Earth science research.

The award carries no set-aside designation, reflecting NAS's status as a trusted, nonpartisan scientific advisory organization that regularly partners with federal agencies across multiple domains. As a congressionally chartered nonprofit entity, NAS brings independent objectivity to its work supporting federal science policy. This grant aligns with the National Academies' broader portfolio of support for Earth science research, including activities of its Board on Earth Sciences and Resources and related committees that address critical challenges in geodesy and geosphere science. The organization's proven track record in delivering scientific counsel across diverse federal priorities positions it to effectively advance NASA's geodesy and geosphere research agenda during the performance period.
