- The SETI Institute received a $5.98 million grant from NASA's Planetary Science and Exploration Studies program for a four-year multidisciplinary research initiative addressing two primary themes: water in the solar system and steps toward human Mars exploration. The research program combines theoretical studies, spacecraft mission data analysis, field investigations in terrestrial analog environments, and collaborative workshops to examine the origin and evolution of water on planetary bodies...
- This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the SETI Institute, a non-profit scientific organization, to conduct research investigating the geology and aqueous alteration history of the South Isidis region of Mars. The $479,900 grant will fund analyses of orbital spectral and imaging data to address specific science questions, including the formation of phyllosilicates, carbonates, and other minerals, the effects of geologic processes like the Isidis...
- The SETI Institute, a Mountain View, California-based non-profit scientific research organization, received a $503,000 grant award from a federal Civilian agency effective November 1, 2022, to support characterization of low-hydrate magnesium and iron sulfates relevant to Mars detection efforts. This research grant, which carries an ultimate completion date of October 31, 2026, was awarded without set-aside designation, reflecting selection based on scientific merit and technical expertise....
- This is a $525,592 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the non-profit Seti Institute. The grant will fund research to investigate the occurrence of the mineral jarosite and its aluminum-bearing counterpart alunite on the surface of Mars. This research aims to determine the environmental conditions that supported the formation and preservation of these indicator minerals, which can provide insights into the temperature, pH, and presence of liquid water...
- The SETI Institute, a non-profit scientific research organization headquartered in Mountain View, California, has been awarded a $770,669 research grant by a federal agency to investigate the molecular response and physiological adaptation of moss to simulated deep space cosmic ionizing radiation and spaceflight microgravity. This project represents fundamental astrobiology research examining how organisms respond to the extreme environmental conditions encountered beyond Earth's protective...
- This is a $216,128 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the SETI Institute, a non-profit research organization. The grant is for research to constrain the evolution of Mars through Bayesian inference of impact craters above and below the Medusae Fossae Formation. This research will likely contribute to NASA's planetary science and astrobiology programs. The award does not utilize a set-aside designation, indicating the SETI Institute was selected based on its...
- This is a $377,913 grant award from NASA to the SETI Institute, a non-profit scientific organization, to investigate and characterize the occurrence of "doublet" materials found in light-toned outcrops and interior layered deposits on Mars. The goal is to determine the factors influencing the formation of this unique phase and understand its stratigraphy and geologic context relative to nearby minerals like phyllosilicates and sulfates. This research falls under NASA's broader...
- This is a $852,088.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the non-profit Seti Institute. The grant is for research on the Convective Boundary Layer (CBL) on Mars and Earth.
