- New York University received a $381,526 research grant from a civilian federal agency's Shared Services Center, awarded January 1, 2025, with completion targeted for December 31, 2027. The grant supports execution of a balanced science program aligned with National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine guidance, administration priorities, and congressional direction. NYU will serve as a key partner in the agency's exploration initiative, conducting scientific research focused on the...
- This federal contract award to New York University (NYU) from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has a ceiling value of $618,018.00. The purpose of this 4-year grant for research is to integrate NASA resources into the standard operating procedures of air quality agencies in low and moderate income countries through a pilot study. The award does not utilize a set-aside. As a leading research university, NYU has previously received various federal contracts and grants from...
- This federal contract award was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station (Tees), a government entity and state institution of higher learning. The $123,663.24 grant is for research into a new and innovative beamed propulsion architecture that could enable an interstellar mission to Proxima Centauri at 10% the speed of light with a 42-year cruise duration. This propulsion system is designed to...
- This federal contract award was granted by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to Beam Engineering for Advanced Measurements Co., a woman-owned small business. The $99,961 grant is for research and development of a "thin-film, nearly weightless broadband diffractive waveplate lens" that can provide advanced imaging capabilities for NASA observation and exoplanet detection missions. This innovative optical technology aims to enable the construction of very large aperture...
This federal contract award to New York University (NYU) is to develop methods for projecting propagation-invariant electromagnetic fields that can transport illuminated objects upstream against the direction of energy flow over large distances. This capability, often referred to as "tractor beams," could have wide-ranging applications in space and planetary exploration, such as sampling dust from comet tails and planet surfaces. The contract, valued at $149,465.72, aims to advance the technology from Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 1 to TRL 3 through theoretical research, computer modeling, and experimental verification. The contract is funded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian federal agency. NYU has previously received federal contracts and grants from agencies like the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), National Institutes of Health (NIH), and Department of Transportation for research in areas such as cybersecurity, hardware security, and transportation data analysis. This contract does not have a set-aside designation.
