- This federal contract award, issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), provides a grant of $397,083.67 to the University of Texas at Austin. The grant's objectives are to map the distribution and thickness of the Latitude Dependent Mantle (LDM), an ice-rich soil deposit on Mars, using data from the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter and Mars Global Surveyor. This research aims to improve understanding of the LDM's origin, climate significance, and in-situ resource...
- This is a $196,810.00 grant award to the University of Texas at Austin from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) for research titled "WHAT ARE THE RADAR BRIGHT TERRAINS ON MARS?". The award is not associated with a set-aside contract vehicle. The University of Texas at Austin is the prime grantee, and the award is part of NASA's broader research program focused on understanding the geology and surface features of Mars. As a major research university, the...
- This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Arizona, doing business as the Arizona Board of Regents, for a research project to develop a framework for analyzing debris-covered glaciers on Mars. The $770,270.35 grant will fund the development of a numerical model to study the formation and evolution of these glacial features, which could provide insights into Mars' past climate. The research will involve field studies of analog...
- This federal contract award, valued at $223,499.00, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin) in the form of a research grant. The goal of the project is to understand seasonal dynamic histories for glaciers in Greenland. The contract does not have a set-aside designation. UT Austin, a prominent public research university, has a diverse portfolio of federal research contracts and grants across...
