- The Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division, received a $614,573.66 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research on the importance of including low-frequency hiss, exohiss, and plasmapause-organized hiss in predictive modeling of electron dynamics in the inner magnetosphere. The research aims to quantify the impact of these "missing" aspects of hiss physics...
- This is a $450,340.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division. The grant is for a research project focused on understanding the export of grounded ice from Antarctica's floating glacial ice shelves through calving and basal ice shelf melt, particularly in the Amundsen Sea Embayment (ASE) region where there have been accelerated...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $147,274.73 grant to the Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division, to conduct a series of laboratory experiments. The research aims to study the effects of hypervelocity micrometeoroid impacts on icy planetary bodies, which is important for understanding the space environment around objects like the moons of Jupiter, Saturn, and Uranus, as well as Pluto and Kuiper Belt objects. The experiments will create icy targets and bombard them with micrometeoroids to measure and analyze the resulting chemical signatures, which may provide insights applicable to spacecraft and ground-based observations of icy surfaces. This grant award is not associated with a larger contract vehicle and does not have a set-aside designation.
