- This is a $308,070.77 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University for a research project titled "High-Speed Multiphase Flow in Plume-Surface Interaction." The project aims to study the effects of rocket exhaust plumes on granular surfaces during powered descent on the Moon and Mars, which can pose risks to spacecraft and astronauts. This research grant, awarded on August 1, 2020, has a period of performance through...
- 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 $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 $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...
- This is a $580,738 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University for "Compositional and Photometric Studies Along the MSL Traverse." The grant is part of a larger contract vehicle between NASA and The Johns Hopkins University, as the university holds an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) with the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) for Evidence-based Practice Center (EPC) services. The contract has no set-aside...
- This is a $1,320,620 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center (an administrative organization) of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University, a private research university in Baltimore, Maryland. The grant is for a scientific research project focused on understanding deviations from ideal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) models in determining the critical states and evolution of the Earth's magnetosphere. This grant does not have a set-aside designation....
- 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 $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 $2,018,337 grant awarded by a civilian federal agency to The Johns Hopkins University, a private non-profit research institution, for a research project titled "ROSES Funding Opportunity". The grant's goals are to execute a balanced science program, participate in the agency's exploration initiative focused on scientific research of, on, and from the Moon, Mars, and beyond, advance discovery in emerging fields, and develop applied programs in areas like Earth science, space...
- This is a $526,472.69 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University for research on the geological analysis of cometary surfaces. The grant aims to: (1) construct improved shape and topography models of comet nuclei; (2) examine and compare the geology and surface evolution of four comet nuclei; and (3) map jets in 3D and study their relationship with the surface. This award is part of a larger NASA initiative focused on studying comets...
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 validate numerical simulations being developed by another team at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory and the University of Michigan. The grant does not have a set-aside designation and is awarded directly to The Johns Hopkins University as the prime contractor, without any major subcontractors mentioned. The project supports NASA's efforts to improve the design and safety of future Mars landing systems.
