This $388,942 federal grant was awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center to Hampton University, a private, non-profit historically Black college and university (HBCU), to analyze the aftermath of Saturn's 2010-2011 Great Storm using data from the Cassini orbiter's Imaging Science Subsystem (ISS) and Visual and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer (VIMS) instruments. The grant will fund a detailed investigation of the temporal evolution of the storm's impact on Saturn's atmospheric structure and cloud...
This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Hampton University, a private non-profit educational institution, to construct 2D wind maps of Saturn's atmosphere. The $109,762 grant aims to further the understanding of Saturn's dynamic meteorology by utilizing Cassini mission data and advanced cloud feature tracking software. The research addresses a deficiency in the current knowledge of Saturn's atmospheric dynamics compared to the more extensively...
This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Hampton University, a private, non-profit historically Black university located in Hampton, Virginia. The $134,238.00 grant is for research to analyze images of Saturn captured by the Voyager and Cassini missions to investigate how the planet's zonal wind speeds have evolved between 1980 and the Cassini era. The contract does not have a set-aside designation. Hampton University is a minority-owned...
The U.S. government agency NASA awarded a $430,510 grant to the University of Wisconsin System to conduct research on the composition and structure of Saturn's storm clouds using data from the Cassini mission. The research will focus on analyzing data from the Cassini Visual and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer (VIMS) and Imaging Science Subsystem (ISS) to constrain the composition of aerosols in stormy regions on Saturn, particularly related to a major seasonal storm that developed in 2010-2011....
This is a $219,962 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Hampton University, a private, non-profit Historically Black College and University (HBCU) located in Hampton, Virginia. The grant is for a research project titled "UNDERSTANDING HURRICANE DYNAMICS USING FIELD CAMPAIGN DATASETS AND LARGE EDDY NUMERICAL SIMULATIONS FOR INTERPRETATION OF NASA SATELLITE DATA." The project aims to leverage field campaign data and large eddy numerical simulations...
This is a $465,093 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Wisconsin System to support research on characterizing the vertical structure and composition of cloud particles associated with storm systems and features on Saturn. The research aims to enhance understanding of the dynamics of Saturn's polar vortices and the aftermath of the Great Storm of 2010-2011. The work will utilize data from the Cassini mission's Visible and Infrared Mapping...
This is a $358,889 grant awarded by NASA to the University of Houston System (UH) to study the dynamics of Saturn's relatively deep atmosphere using data from the Cassini/VIMS (Visible and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer) mission. The award has a period of performance through September 30, 2025. UH is a state-controlled institution of higher learning in Houston, Texas that provides research, education, and technology transfer services to various federal agencies. It has been involved in prior...
This is a $209,469.00 grant awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) for a research project titled "CONSTRAINING STABLE STRATIFICATION AND DEEP WINDS INSIDE SATURN WITH CASSINI MAGNETOMETER DATA AND DYNAMO SIMULATIONS". The award is to support specialized scientific research utilizing data from the Cassini mission to study the internal structure and atmospheric dynamics of Saturn. This is a non-set-aside grant with a period of...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $443,503.00 grant to the University of Arizona, doing business as the Arizona Board of Regents, for a research project titled "Observations of Saturn from the Cassini Mission Provide the Most Extensive Constraints on a Giant Planet Upper Atmosphere to Date." The grant is responsive to NASA's Cassini Data Analysis Program and will utilize data from the Cassini mission to analyze the chemical composition, thermal...
This is a $12,530.70 grant award from the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to Hampton University, a private, non-profit historically Black college and university (HBCU) located in Hampton, Virginia.
