This is a federal grant award made by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Minnesota, doing business as the Office of Sponsored Projects Administration, for a coordinated observation between the NuSTAR satellite and the Parker Solar Probe during the probe's January 2020 perihelion.

The $62,742 grant is for research purposes and does not have a set-aside designation. The University of Minnesota is a major land-grant research institution with extensive expertise in scientific research, including in fields like health sciences, engineering, and climate/environmental studies. Through this award, the university will leverage its research facilities and faculty to support NASA's ongoing Parker Solar Probe mission, which is investigating the Sun's outer atmosphere and solar wind.

While this appears to be a standalone research grant, the University of Minnesota also holds a larger $11 million indefinite delivery contract with the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute to serve as a field center for the long-running Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA) study on cardiovascular disease.
