- The University of Colorado, Boulder was awarded a $398,692.95 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct laboratory research supporting the agency's Mars Express (MEX), Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution (MAVEN), and Venus Express (VEX) missions. The research will utilize the MAVEN Imaging Ultraviolet Spectrograph (IUVS) engineering model to study the response of the Martian and Venusian upper atmospheres to variations in solar radiation. Key objectives...
- This is a $333,295.00 grant award to The Regents of the University of Colorado (doing business as the University of Colorado) from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) for research on the upper atmosphere of Mars. The award supports analysis of data from two Mars spacecraft, the Mars Express mission's SPICAM instrument and the MAVEN mission's IUVS instrument, using Mars general circulation models to characterize the dynamics of the Martian middle and upper atmosphere. This...
- The University of Colorado was awarded a $378,264 research grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to study and compare the induced magnetospheres and ion escape at Venus and Mars. This work utilizes publicly available data from NASA's Planetary Data System (PDS) and the European Space Agency's (ESA) Planetary Science Archive (PSA) and aligns with NASA's Solar System Working (SSW) program. The grant, awarded on May 1, 2020, is a civilian contract without any set-aside...
- This is a $479,712.43 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division. The grant is for a three-year research project to study the mechanisms of hydrogen loss from the atmospheres of Venus and Mars, with the goal of improving understanding of how water has been depleted from these planets over solar system history. The research will couple...
- This is a $372,851.82 grant awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center to the University of Colorado (CU) for a research project titled "Temporal Evolution of Plasma near Mars: A Multi-Point Approach." The project aims to use data from the MAVEN and Mars Express spacecraft to study the temporal and spatial variability of the Martian plasma environment, addressing key questions about the response time to changes in upstream conditions, the stability of plasma conditions at low...
- The U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $463,114 grant for research to the University of Colorado, a state-funded public research institution, to study the spatio-temporal evolution of thermospheric oxygen and nitrogen in the Earth's upper atmosphere and its impacts. The grant, awarded on October 26, 2021 without a set-aside designation, will support the University's research to understand the drivers and effects of changes in the oxygen and nitrogen composition...
