- This is a $702,666 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Colorado, a public research university, to conduct a study of lunar magmatism and impact processes as part of a consortium. The study will leverage analyses of Apollo lunar regolith and breccia samples to build a global record of lunar geological activity. The grant does not have a set-aside designation and was awarded on a non-competitive basis. The University of Colorado has...
- The U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $440,691 grant to the Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division, for a research project titled "HIGH-CADENCE, GLOBAL MASS DENSITY RETRIEVALS FOR IMPROVED SATELLITE DRAG SPECIFICATION AND FORECAST". The award supports fundamental research by the University of Colorado, a U.S. state government entity and institution of higher...
- This is a $583,034 federal grant award from the Shared Services Center (SSC) of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado. The grant is for a research project focused on studying landslides, a destructive natural hazard, over the long-term using observational records and remote sensing data. As a public research university, the University of Colorado has a history of providing research and...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $309,400.00 training grant to The Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division. This award, which does not have a set-aside designation, aims to enable the acquisition of high-value scientific data from spacecraft operations near active comets. The University of Colorado, a U.S. state government entity and accredited public research university, will...
- The Regents of the University of Colorado has received a $439,767 research grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) through its Shared Services Center, with performance in Boulder, Colorado. The award is effective January 1, 2026, and is scheduled for completion by December 31, 2027. This grant supports the Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) funding opportunity, which aims to execute a balanced science program aligned with guidance from the...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $124,953.00 grant to The Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado, to develop a new type of soft robotic spacecraft designed to efficiently move on and around rubble pile asteroids. The spacecraft, termed "Area-of-Effect Soft-Bots (AOES)," are intended to utilize adhesion to the asteroid surface to enable mobility and anchoring, allowing for the liberation and collection of...
The Regents of the University of Colorado, a U.S. state government entity and institution of higher learning, was awarded a $478,713 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research and simulations on the strength and seismic response of rubble pile asteroids. The research aims to develop theoretical models for how seismic energy is transmitted through granular, rubble pile bodies and how this could enable determining the interior structure of such gravitational aggregates. This work could provide insights into methods for mitigating potentially hazardous small bodies. The award does not have a set-aside designation and was made directly to the University of Colorado's Office of Contracts and Grants Division as the prime contractor, without reference to any larger contract vehicle.
