This is a $134,664 training grant awarded to the University of Chicago by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) on September 1, 2020. The grant will fund research to model the processes that enabled the stability of surface liquid water on Mars later into its history, potentially extending the planet's habitability. The research aims to constrain the volume of water and number of outflow events required to produce observed surface features called "pollywogs," which...
This federal contract award, Grant ID NNX16AJ38G, was granted to the University of Chicago by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) under the Mars Data Analysis Program. The $250,459.54 grant is funding research to quantify the role of fluvial erosion versus other processes in modifying Noachian craters on Mars. The research aims to better constrain the rates and processes of Noachian landscape evolution, which can inform climate models for early Mars. This grant does not have...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $256,831.00 grant for research to the University of Chicago, a leading academic institution and research university located in Chicago, Illinois. The purpose of the grant is to improve the basic knowledge of the effect of partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PCO2) on the elevation and latitude distribution of surface liquid water potential, and to apply that improved understanding to the drying-out of Mars. This contract has no...
This is a $414,149.79 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Chicago, a private research university, to model the post-accretion cooling of water-rich exoplanets. The objective is to assess the conditions under which these exoplanets will cool sufficiently to condense liquid water oceans. This grant does not have a set-aside designation, reflecting the University of Chicago's status as a large, established...
This is a federal grant award to the University of Chicago, a renowned private research university, by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The $557,150 grant is for the university to execute a balanced science program based on guidance from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, as well as NASA's priorities and direction from Congress. The university will participate as a key partner and enabler in NASA's exploration initiative, focusing on...
This is a $268,102.03 grant awarded to the University of Chicago by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to study the origin of the volatile envelopes of small-radius exoplanets. The purpose is to improve understanding of the chemical and physical processes that govern exoplanet surfaces, interiors, and atmospheres, as well as the origins of their volatiles. The research will combine models of planet thermal evolution and outgassing to explore two scenarios for how water...
