This is a grant award to the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) for a project titled "Non-Destructive Analysis of Comet Grains and Tracks: Minerals and Original Grain Properties". The $389,909.47 award will fund the use of three non-destructive 3D imaging and analysis techniques - laser scanning confocal microscopy, stereo X-ray fluorescence chemical mapping, and laser Raman microscopy - to study comet grains collected by the Stardust mission. The goal is to identify mineral composition and infer the original properties of the impacted grains before capture in aerogel. The project aims to maximize scientific return from Stardust samples and contribute to the development of future aerogel capture missions. There is no set-aside designation for this grant, reflecting AMNH's status as a large non-profit research institution. AMNH will collaborate with researchers at the University of Chicago and the Department of Energy's Advanced Photon Source synchrotron on this project.
