The grant does not have...
- This is a $282,498.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), a nonprofit research and development organization. The grant supports a program of mid-infrared observations of Venus that will build a unique three-dimensional dataset of the temperature structure in the planet's mesosphere. The award is not associated with a set-aside program. SwRI has extensive experience supporting federal...
- This federal contract award, valued at $599,889.00, was granted by the Shared Services Center to the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), a prominent nonprofit research and development organization based in San Antonio, Texas. The contract is a grant for research focused on "BEPICOLOMBO ENABLED STUDIES OF VENUS' ENERGY BUDGET AND CLIMATE DRIVERS." SwRI has a strong track record of securing federal contract awards and grants, particularly from agencies like NASA, the Department of...
- Southwest Research Institute has been awarded a $410,881 grant by the National Aeronautic and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to serve as a guest investigator supporting and helping to define key science activities that may be completed during encounters of the BepiColombo Venus flybys in conjunction with the PHEBUS UV spectrometer. The period of performance for this research is through March 25, 2025. No set-aside designation was applied to this award. Southwest Research...
- This federal contract award, valued at $498,109.00, was granted to the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) for research on the potential for atmospheric formations around large trans-Neptunian objects. The contract is a grant for research, with a completion date of May 31, 2025. SwRI is a nonprofit, applied research and development organization that has supported various government agencies, including NASA, through prime and subcontract...
- This is a $607,435 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), a nonprofit research organization in San Antonio, Texas. The grant supports an "Airborne Electromagnetic Sounding of the Interiors of Venus, Mars, and Titan" project, which uses electromagnetic induction techniques to study the electrical conductivity of planetary interiors. This grant is not set aside and is part of NASA's Science Mission...
- This federal contract award, valued at $496,729.00, was granted to Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), a prominent nonprofit research and development organization based in San Antonio, Texas. The contract is for research work to be conducted using the TexeS Mid-IR Spectrograph at the NASA Infrared Telescope Facility (IRTF) and the Gemini Telescope. This contract is not associated with any set-aside program. SwRI has demonstrated extensive capabilities in providing advanced scientific and...
This federal contract award, valued at $486,152.63, was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), a non-profit research and development organization. The purpose of the contract is to provide spectral image cubes to accompany data from the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency's Akatsuki spacecraft, which is orbiting Venus. The goal is to identify cloud properties, such as particle size, acidity, and altitude, as well as map the distribution of tracer gases like carbon monoxide, carbonyl sulfide, and water. SwRI plans to organize ground-based observations from multiple observatories to obtain the necessary spectral image data. This contract is not associated with a set-aside program and has a completion date of December 9, 2020.
