- This $466,435.93 federal grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University to investigate the water ice and other volatile deposits in the polar regions of the planet Mercury. The work will utilize data from the MESSENGER (MErcury Surface, Space ENvironment, GEochemistry and Ranging) spacecraft mission to produce new digital elevation models and analyze the illumination and thermal conditions of these polar deposits. The proposed...
- This is a $281,350.64 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University, a private research university, to conduct research on the distribution, origin, and age of water ice deposits at Mercury's poles. The grant is part of NASA's overall effort to advance scientific understanding of the solar system. The research will leverage data from Earth-based radar and the MESSENGER spacecraft to address fundamental questions about Mercury's polar...
- This federal contract award, valued at $207,287.04, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University to conduct research on characterizing the geochemical terranes of the planet Mercury. The research aims to provide insights into the processes that dominated Mercury's crustal evolution, including the formation of the primary crust, volcanic resurfacing, and impact modification. The contract leverages data from the MESSENGER (MErcury Surface,...
- This federal contract award, valued at $224,581.09, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University to produce and deliver a suite of new and enhanced data sets from the MESSENGER mission to the Planetary Data System. The objectives include delivering five new MESSENGER Advanced Products (MEAPs): MEAP-1 and MEAP-2 will provide hyperspectral reflectance spectroscopic planetary map cubes for Mercury, MEAP-3 will characterize energetic...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $348,896.00 grant to The Johns Hopkins University to conduct research on the "Exploring the Earliest Stages of Explosive Volcanism on Mercury." This contract, with a period of performance through June 2, 2026, is not set aside for any specific business type. The Johns Hopkins University, a private, non-profit research university, will serve as the prime contractor on this grant. The university has a strong track...

The grant is for a project titled "UNDERSTANDING SOURCE AND LOSS PROCESSES IN MERCURY'S EXOSPHERE USING MESSENGER OBSERVATIONS". The award has an ultimate completion date of October 9, 2026 and was made on October 10, 2023. There is no set-aside designation, indicating the award was...
- This is a $563,177 grant for research awarded to The Johns Hopkins University by a civilian federal agency, the Shared Services Center, to conduct a study titled "UNDERSTANDING THE HETEROGENEITY OF MERCURY'S VOLATILE-BEARING SOUTH POLAR DEPOSITS" with a period of performance through October 9, 2026. The Johns Hopkins University is a private, non-profit research university known for its expertise in scientific research across various domains, including space exploration, for federal...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded The Johns Hopkins University a $340,582 grant to conduct numerical modeling of water transport and deposition on Mercury in the aftermath of volatile-rich impacts. Specifically, the University will use direct simulation Monte Carlo modeling to investigate how water is redistributed following an impact, characterize any resulting transient atmospheres/exospheres, determine what fraction of delivered volatiles may be preserved as...
- This is a $134,694.71 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University, a private non-profit university, to conduct research related to understanding Mercury's internally generated magnetic field. The grant does not have a set-aside designation. The research aims to address limitations in current understanding due to the impact of external signals in Mercury's active magnetic environment. This award is not associated with a larger...
- This is a $349,910.76 research grant awarded by NASA to The Johns Hopkins University to investigate the hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O) exospheres of Mercury. The grant, which runs from May 2015 to November 2020, will analyze data from the Mercury Atmospheric and Surface Composition Spectrometer (MASCS) instrument on the MESSENGER spacecraft to improve understanding of the processes behind Mercury's exosphere and space weathering. The research aims to reveal the temporal and spatial variability of...
