- 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...
- 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 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....
- 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 $739,218 grant contract was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the SETI Institute, a non-profit research organization based in Mountain View, California. The contract is for research to advance understanding of aqueous alteration and gypsum formation at Olympia Undae on Mars, through analysis of data from the Compact Reconnaissance Imaging Spectrometer for Mars (CRISM) and High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) instruments. This work supports...
- 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 $431,522 grant awarded by a civilian federal agency to the SETI Institute, a non-profit research organization in Mountain View, California. The grant is for the SETI Institute to execute a balanced science program based on guidance from the National Academies, administration priorities, and congressional direction. The work will focus on scientific research of, on, and from the Moon, lunar orbit, Mars, and beyond, as well as advancing discovery in emerging fields through...
- This is a $80,614 grant award to the SETI Institute, a non-profit research organization, by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The grant is for the SETI Institute to execute a balanced science program based on guidance from the National Academies, administration priorities, and congressional direction. The grant supports the SETI Institute's participation as a key partner in NASA's exploration initiatives, focusing on scientific research of, on, and from the Moon, lunar...
- This is a federal grant award to the Seti Institute, a non-profit scientific organization, for a research project on chondrites, comets, and the origins of water, volatiles, and organics in the early solar system. The award, valued at $500,392.00, was made by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and has an ultimate completion date of January 1, 2024. The Seti Institute has received multiple federal contract and grant awards from NASA and the National Science Foundation to...
- This is a $70,000 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the SETI Institute, a non-profit scientific research organization. The grant is for the SETI Institute to execute a balanced science program based on guidance from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, as well as administration priorities and direction from Congress. The work will focus on scientific research related to the Moon, lunar orbit, Mars, and beyond, with the goal...
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 program focused on investigating evidence of acidic alteration on Mars. The award does not have a set-aside designation. The SETI Institute has held multiple research contracts and grants from NASA and the National Science Foundation to support space exploration and advance scientific knowledge in fields like astrobiology, planetary science, and astronomy.
