- This is a $435,469.13 grant awarded to The Johns Hopkins University by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Shared Services Center on June 1, 2016 for the project "Characterizing Mercury's Energetic Electron Events: A Phenomenological Study of a Unique Magnetosphere." The grant supports a study of the transient bursts of energetic particles produced in Mercury's magnetosphere, using data from the MESSENGER spacecraft. The research focuses on four main aspects of...
- This $192,613.97 federal grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University to conduct research on the history and composition of explosive volcanic deposits on the planet Mercury. The research aims to determine when these deposits formed and analyze variations in the volatile gas fraction and magma composition across the deposits. It will leverage data from the MErcury Surface, Space ENvironment, GEochemistry and Ranging (MESSENGER)...
- This is a $319,012.72 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian U.S. government agency, to The Johns Hopkins University on June 1, 2016. The objective of this grant is to develop a comprehensive model of Mercury's magnetospheric magnetic field to better understand the interactions between Mercury's interior, surface, and magnetosphere, which is relevant to the Solar System Roadmap's goal of determining how the solar system evolved to its current state. The grant supports three main...
- 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 $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...
