- This is a $310,383.17 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University to characterize the distribution and variability of Martian subsurface ices using 16 years of data from the Mars Odyssey Neutron Spectrometer. The project aims to map ice deposits, including their time-dependent spatial extents, for comparisons with global climate models to investigate climate change on Mars. The research will involve applying enhanced data...
- This is a $431,265.61 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to The Johns Hopkins University, a private non-profit research university. The grant supports a research project with the objectives of identifying stratigraphic tie points and correlating layered sedimentary deposits on Mars through analysis of physical, spectroscopic, and thermophysical properties. The goal is to establish the first regional framework for equatorial layered...
- This is a $389,273.05 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University for research on analyzing multispectral data from NASA's Mars Exploration Rover (MER) and Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) missions. The grant is part of NASA's Mars Data Analysis Program (MDAP), which aims to enhance the scientific return from Mars missions. The research will focus on studying the photometric behavior, surface scattering properties, and fine-scale surface...
- The Johns Hopkins University was awarded a $110,903.98 grant for research by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center. The goal of the research is to use data from NASA's Mars Odyssey Gamma-Ray Spectrometer to map the sodium (Na) content across the surface of Mars. This will help characterize the igneous and aqueous processes that formed and altered the Martian crust. The research project includes tasks such as mapping Na count rates, correcting the data...
- This is a $166,964.43 grant for research awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University. The grant is for an "Experimental Investigation of Excess Shallow Ground Ice on Mars" and aims to test theories on the origin of excess ground ice on Mars, specifically the potential role of liquid water. The research will involve laboratory simulations to understand water transport and ice segregation processes, in order to better constrain...
- This is a $599,481.00 grant awarded by a civilian government agency to The Johns Hopkins University, a private non-profit research university, for a project involving surveys of Noachian terrain on Mars to study the prevalence and variety of alteration phases formed through weathering, elevated pressure/temperature, burial diagenesis, and hydrothermal alteration. The award does not have a set-aside designation, indicating open competition. As a leading federal contractor and grantee, The Johns...
- This is a $1,400,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University, a leading private research university, to execute a balanced science program. The grant will focus on scientific research of, on, and from the Moon, lunar orbit, Mars, and beyond, as well as advancing discovery in emerging fields by identifying and exploiting cross-disciplinary opportunities. The grant also includes efforts to develop a target-user focused approach...
- This is a $302,427.49 grant for research awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University. The grant is part of NASA's Lunar Data Analysis Program and aims to use data from the Moon Mineralogy Mapper instrument to characterize the mineralogy and cooling rates of orthopyroxene-rich deposits on the lunar surface. The research seeks to understand the evolution of the lunar crust and mantle by analyzing the composition and provenance of these...
- This is a $526,472.69 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University for research on the geological analysis of cometary surfaces. The grant aims to: (1) construct improved shape and topography models of comet nuclei; (2) examine and compare the geology and surface evolution of four comet nuclei; and (3) map jets in 3D and study their relationship with the surface. This award is part of a larger NASA initiative focused on studying comets...
- This is a $1,033,138.15 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University for a research project focused on understanding the particle dynamics in a high-speed jet during the landing phase of Mars missions. The project aims to develop advanced diagnostic tools to study the plume-soil interaction and dust entrainment that occur when a lander's rocket engines interact with the Martian surface during descent. This research is intended to...
