- This is a $1,400,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University, a leading private research university, to execute a balanced science program. The grant will focus on scientific research of, on, and from the Moon, lunar orbit, Mars, and beyond, as well as advancing discovery in emerging fields by identifying and exploiting cross-disciplinary opportunities. The grant also includes efforts to develop a target-user focused approach...
- This is a $599,481.00 grant awarded by a civilian government agency to The Johns Hopkins University, a private non-profit research university, for a project involving surveys of Noachian terrain on Mars to study the prevalence and variety of alteration phases formed through weathering, elevated pressure/temperature, burial diagenesis, and hydrothermal alteration. The award does not have a set-aside designation, indicating open competition. As a leading federal contractor and grantee, The Johns...
- This is a $389,273.05 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University for research on analyzing multispectral data from NASA's Mars Exploration Rover (MER) and Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) missions. The grant is part of NASA's Mars Data Analysis Program (MDAP), which aims to enhance the scientific return from Mars missions. The research will focus on studying the photometric behavior, surface scattering properties, and fine-scale surface...
- This is a $362,060.26 grant from the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded to The Johns Hopkins University to study unusual terrain features on the western flank of Olympus Mons on Mars. The research aims to characterize the origin and formational history of these anomalous terrains, which exhibit elevated thermal inertia, variable albedo, and possible indicators of recent aqueous activity or presence of salt-bearing materials. The grant...
- This is a $195,464.70 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University to conduct research on the composition and layering of the Martian surface. The research aims to use data from the Mars Odyssey Gamma-Ray Spectrometer to map the distribution and depth of compositionally distinct subsurface layers on Mars, and compare these findings to other Mars datasets. This grant is part of NASA's "Global Characterization of Near-Surface...
- This is a $1,982,635 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center (an alternate name for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration) to The Johns Hopkins University, a private non-profit research university, to execute a balanced science program. The contract supports the agency's exploration initiative, focusing on scientific research of, on, and from the Moon, Lunar orbit, Mars, and beyond. It aims to advance discovery in emerging fields by identifying and exploiting cross-disciplinary...
- This is a $496,337 federal grant awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to The Johns Hopkins University. The grant is for a research project titled "ORIGINS OF THE MEDUSAE FOSSAE FORMATION: STRATIGRAPHY AND DEPOSITIONAL HISTORY" with a performance period ending August 31, 2027. As a university recipient, The Johns Hopkins University has a history of receiving prime federal contracts and grants from agencies like the NIH, NSF, DoD, and CDC to conduct scientific...
- This is a $671,389 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center (a civilian agency) to The Johns Hopkins University, a private non-profit research university in Baltimore, Maryland. The grant is for the university to execute a balanced science program based on guidance from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, administration priorities, and direction from Congress. The university will participate as a key partner and enabler in the agency's exploration initiative,...
- This is a $1,033,138.15 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University for a research project focused on understanding the particle dynamics in a high-speed jet during the landing phase of Mars missions. The project aims to develop advanced diagnostic tools to study the plume-soil interaction and dust entrainment that occur when a lander's rocket engines interact with the Martian surface during descent. This research is intended to...
- This is a $166,964.43 grant for research awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University. The grant is for an "Experimental Investigation of Excess Shallow Ground Ice on Mars" and aims to test theories on the origin of excess ground ice on Mars, specifically the potential role of liquid water. The research will involve laboratory simulations to understand water transport and ice segregation processes, in order to better constrain...
This is a $431,265.61 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to The Johns Hopkins University, a private non-profit research university. The grant supports a research project with the objectives of identifying stratigraphic tie points and correlating layered sedimentary deposits on Mars through analysis of physical, spectroscopic, and thermophysical properties. The goal is to establish the first regional framework for equatorial layered deposits on Mars and understand the climatic and depositional conditions during their formation. This research aligns with NASA's planetary science goals and leverages The Johns Hopkins University's expertise in space research and remote sensing analysis. The award does not have a set-aside designation.
