- Southwest Research Institute has been awarded an $802,215 grant by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to conduct research entitled "Rounding Up Craters Linking the Formation Conditions of Elliptical and Circular Craters on Saturn's Moons." The research will be performed in San Antonio, Texas through December 31, 2026, with no set-aside designation. As part of its planetary science programs, NASA supports research to advance understanding...
- This is a $479,830.79 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) to conduct research on the evaporation of liquid methane saturated with nitrogen on the surface of Titan, Saturn's largest moon. The research aims to improve the interpretation of data from the Cassini mission's Visual and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer (VIMS) observations of tropospheric clouds on Titan. The grant is part of NASA's Cassini Data Analysis...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration awarded a $501,780 grant contract to Southwest Research Institute of San Antonio, Texas. The contract supports research to analyze imagery from the Cassini spacecraft documenting the surfaces of Saturn's moons, including Titan and Enceladus. Southwest Research Institute will leverage its expertise in planetary science to study images capturing terrain at scales finer than one kilometer per pixel and help advance NASA's goals of exploring and...
- This is a $757,193 grant award from NASA's Shared Services Center to the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), a nonprofit research organization. The grant is to support a research project titled "USING ELLIPTICAL CRATERS TO CONSTRAIN THE BOMBARDMENT HISTORY OF SATURNS MIDSIZED ICY MOONS". The project appears to be related to planetary science and icy moon research, which is a common focus area for NASA grants. The award is not associated with a set-aside program and has a period of...
- The Planetary Science Institute, a non-profit research organization based in Tucson, Arizona, was awarded a $229,427 research grant by a civilian federal agency on February 8, 2022, with an ultimate completion date of February 7, 2027. This grant supports a scientific research initiative focused on detecting geological changes on Enceladus, Saturn's small ice-covered moon, by comparing high-resolution imagery from the Voyager spacecraft missions (1980-1981) with data collected by NASA's...
- Planetary Science Institute, a nonprofit research organization headquartered in Tucson, Arizona, received a $450,830 research grant from NASA's Shared Services Center, awarded on January 10, 2022, with a completion date of January 9, 2027.
