This is a $85,786.09 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Chicago. The grant is part of NASA's Solar System Workings program and will fund a study using non-destructive electron and X-ray microbeam techniques to analyze lunar rock samples. The goal is to determine the valence and coordination of titanium, vanadium, and chromium in the lunar rocks, which will provide insights into the redox conditions of the lunar mantle and crust during...
The University of Chicago has been awarded a $745,051 grant by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to support research relating to the composition of planets and asteroids. Specifically, the three-year grant will fund a study of the severe depletion of moderately volatile elements such as sodium, potassium, and rubidium in planetary bodies relative to undifferentiated meteorites. As the prime contractor, the University of Chicago will perform the...
The University of Chicago was awarded a $100,000.00 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research on "REFRACTORY MINERALS: TRACKING THE EARLY SOLAR ACTIVITY." This grant, with a period of performance from October 1, 2023, to September 30, 2025, does not have a set-aside designation. The University of Chicago, a renowned private research institution, has a strong track record of receiving federal funding through contracts and grants to support...

The contract is a grant for research focused on "Maximizing Energy Efficiency in the Constantly Changing Environments of the Moon and Mars", which will be critical for long-term human sustainability beyond Earth. The award does not have a set-aside designation. The University of Chicago, as a...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $399,826 grant to the Regents of the University of Michigan to conduct research relevant to NASA's Emerging Worlds program. The research will focus on studying melt inclusions and minerals in Apollo lunar samples to characterize the budget of volatiles acquired by the early primordial Moon and use this information to constrain the origin and evolution of the Moon. This grant award does not have a set-aside designation, and the...
This is a $565,000 research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Chicago. The grant supports a study on the isotopic composition of refractory lithophile elements in the earliest solar system materials, including refractory inclusions and chondrites. The goal is to better understand the nebular processes that controlled the chemical fractionation and mixing of elements during the formation of the solar system and the subsequent...
This federal contract award, valued at $749,931.32, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Chicago to conduct research on kinetic isotopic fractionation of solar system materials. The research aims to provide laboratory calibration experiments under controlled conditions to quantify isotopic and chemical fractionation effects observed in early solar system materials, such as calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions (CAIs) and olivine crystals from...
