This federal contract award is a $134,999.99 training grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Washington. The project aims to adapt existing space plasma models to study spatial asymmetry in the subsurface oceans of Jupiter's moon Europa. The research involves collaboration with a NASA staff scientist to incorporate thermodynamic models for icy moon interiors and develop a 3D multi-fluid model to investigate Europa's...
This is a $389,698.43 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Colorado for research into understanding the magnetic field of Jupiter's moon Europa and its subsurface ocean. The research aims to improve the interpretation of data from the Galileo spacecraft to better determine the properties of Europa's subsurface ocean, such as its thickness, depth, and salinity. The research will involve applying various plasma interaction models, including...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $176,523 grant to Providence College to study the coupling of Europa's tides, fault motions, and near-surface melt dynamics over a three-year period. This research contract, which does not have a set-aside designation, supports NASA's planetary science objectives related to the exploration of icy moons. As a private university, Providence College has received numerous federal grants and contracts from agencies such as the...
This federal contract award, valued at $575,037.88, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), a nonprofit research organization based in San Antonio, Texas. The award is for a research grant to study Europa's thermal-orbital evolution and its effects on the moon's surface geology, fracture formation, and potential liquid water transport. The research aims to better characterize Europa's interior structure, tidal...
This federal contract is a $132,999.89 training grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech). The purpose of the contract is to support research aimed at assessing the habitability of Jupiter's moon Europa, a key goal of NASA's Planetary Science Division and the upcoming Europa mission. The research involves obtaining observations from the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Array (ALMA),...
This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University to investigate plate tectonics on Europa, one of Jupiter's moons. The $419,054.72 grant will fund research to characterize the morphology of potential subduction zones, conduct tectonic reconstructions, assess the rigidity of plate behavior, test the geodynamic viability of plate tectonics on Europa, and develop a new paradigm for Europa's ice shell deformation. This work is highly...
This is a $1,682,293.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University, a private non-profit research institution, to conduct research on understanding the composition of Europa's surface. The research will involve a combination of novel laboratory experiments and theoretical analyses. This award is part of a larger Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) that Johns Hopkins holds with the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, valued at...
This contract award is for a $135,000 research grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Arizona State University (ASU) to study the formation and evolution of Europa's deep interior. Europa is one of Jupiter's moons and has been a focus of scientific research following NASA's Galileo mission. The award does not have a set-aside designation. As a major public research university, ASU has a long history of receiving federal research grants and contracts from...
This is a $100,000.00 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York, operating as Columbia University, to conduct laboratory experiments and numerical models to study melt migration under strike-slip faults on Jupiter's moon Europa. The grant is for research and development work, with a performance period ending on August 31, 2025. Columbia University is a renowned private research institution with extensive...
