This federal contract award, valued at $211,538.08, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park. The primary focus of this effort is to apply calibration enhancements to all Deep Impact (DI) observations of the Moon, archived in the Planetary Data System (PDS), and to examine temporal data over the South Pole for the first time. The work will involve re-calibrating all DI lunar spectral data, improving the quantification of the abundance of hydroxyl (OH) and water (H2O), and exploring correlations between OH/H2O content and local environmental conditions. This contract does not have a set-aside designation. The University of Maryland, College Park is a U.S. state government entity and 1862 land grant college that has received numerous federal contracts and grants to conduct research, including in the areas of space physics, exoplanet astronomy, and hypersonic technologies.
