- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to The Trustees of Princeton University, Office of Research and Project Administration, doing business as Princeton University. The $192,370.20 grant is for research to produce and publicly release light curves for approximately 100,000 known star cluster members observed by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) during its first observation cycle. The goal is to search for...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $150,000.00 grant for research to the University of Chicago for the project "UNIFORM LIGHT CURVES ACROSS THE ENTIRE SKY FROM TESS FFIS WITH ELEANOR". The contract, which does not have a set-aside designation, is scheduled for completion on September 30, 2021. The University of Chicago is a leading academic and research institution that has been awarded past prime and sub-contracts from various federal agencies,...
- This is a $3,289.50 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) to develop an approach to improve the scientific utility of full-frame light curves from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). The project aims to leverage data from the Gaia satellite to enable a highly-constrained fit to TESS photometry, producing science-ready light curves for every star brighter than 16th magnitude in the TESS...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $124,992.32 grant to The Trustees of Princeton University's Office of Research and Project Administration to produce and publicly release light curves for approximately 100,000 known star cluster members brighter than magnitude 16 observed in the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) full-frame images during Cycle 2. This research grant does not have a set-aside designation and was awarded on November 1, 2019 with a...
- NASA awarded a $4.2 million grant to The Regents of the University of California, doing business as UC Berkeley, for research supporting the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) General Investigator Program. The award, issued on March 1, 2025, with completion scheduled for February 28, 2028, will support the acquisition and analysis of scientific data from the TESS mission, a NASA Explorer Mission launched in April 2018. The solicitation also welcomes proposals for ground-based telescope...
- This is a $175,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to The Trustees of Princeton University, Office of Research and Project Administration, to produce and publicly release light curve data for all 100,000 known star cluster members brighter than 16th magnitude observed by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) during Cycle 3. The light curves will be generated using image subtraction techniques. This grant does not have...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $210,000.00 grant for research to the University of Chicago. The contract is for the use of the new Maroon-X radial velocity spectrograph on the Gemini-N telescope to perform a uniform survey of transiting planet candidates orbiting M dwarfs that were identified in the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) prime mission. The contract does not have a set-aside designation. The University of Chicago is a leading academic...
- This federal contract award, valued at $200,000.00, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Illinois for a program titled "TEQUILA" to analyze TESS (Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite) full-frame images for nearby galaxies. The goal is to use TESS's precision photometry, high cadence, and all-sky coverage to search for low-level supermassive black hole accretion activity in the local galaxy population. The contract does not have a...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $70,000 grant to The Trustees of Princeton University for the project "Precise Exoplanet Transits for the Brightest Stars Using TESS 20 Second Cadence Data." The grant, issued on January 2, 2024 under NASA's Shared Services Center with no set-aside designation, will fund research at Princeton University's Office of Research and Project Administration to analyze data from NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite...
- This is a $249,999.00 grant awarded by NASA to the University of Hawaii (UH) for the TESS Transient Patrol project. TESS refers to the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite, a NASA mission to search for exoplanets. The grant funds UH to provide research and services related to this satellite program. UH is a large, capable educational institution that has extensive experience executing federal contracts and grants across a wide range of scientific domains, including astronomy, oceanography,...
