This is a $509,107 grant for research awarded to the University of Texas at Austin by NASA's Shared Services Center. The grant is titled "SIMULATION OF THE PHYSICS OF POTENTIAL PLUMES ON EUROPA" and does not have a set-aside designation. The University of Texas at Austin is a public research university that frequently partners with federal agencies like NASA, the Department of Energy, and the National Institutes of Health to perform research across a wide range of scientific and...
This federal grant award to the University of Texas at Austin is funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research on the internal activity and tectonic processes of several icy satellites in the solar system, including Enceladus and Europa. The primary objective is to use modeling software to investigate how processes within the ice shells of these moons are linked to their surface features. The research will be conducted under a $147,105.00 grant with a...
The University of Texas at Austin was awarded a $38,279 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) for the COMETS: CLUES TO CONDITIONS IN THE EARLY SOLAR NEBULA research project. This grant, with a period of performance through May 2026, supports the university's research into conditions in the early solar system. The University of Texas System, which includes UT Austin, has an extensive track record of receiving both federal contracts and grants for research across...
This is a $134,999.99 research grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Texas at Austin, a public research university. The grant will fund research on atmospheric retrieval, which is the only method for determining the properties of exoplanet atmospheres since in-situ measurements are not possible at astronomical distances. The University of Texas at Austin is the prime grantee on this award and is not a set-aside contract. The University of...
This is a $358,889 grant awarded by NASA to the University of Houston System (UH) to study the dynamics of Saturn's relatively deep atmosphere using data from the Cassini/VIMS (Visible and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer) mission. The award has a period of performance through September 30, 2025. UH is a state-controlled institution of higher learning in Houston, Texas that provides research, education, and technology transfer services to various federal agencies. It has been involved in prior...
This is a $99,908.57 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin) to conduct research on exoplanets. The research aims to study the dramatic changes that occur in the orbital, radius, and atmospheric properties of exoplanets in the first few hundred million years after their formation. This is a crucial period for evaluating models of exoplanet evolution, such as migration. The grant is a research contract with a...
This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Cornell University to study the geological features and processes on the surface of Enceladus, one of Saturn's moons. The goal is to understand how cryovolcanism, tectonism, seismicity, mass wasting, impacts, and thermophysical processes have shaped the small-scale surface features on Enceladus, using high-resolution imagery from the Cassini spacecraft. The work also aims to demonstrate the use of...
This $289,747.85 grant award to the University of Houston System, doing business as the University of Houston, supports research to analyze the radiant energy budgets of Jupiter, Saturn, and Titan using long-term observations from the Cassini spacecraft. The research aims to determine the temporal variations in radiant energy budgets and refine estimates of the internal heat of Jupiter and Saturn, as well as investigate whether there is a small energy imbalance on Titan. The grant is part of...
The U.S. government has awarded a $294,822 grant to the University of Texas at Austin to conduct research on integrated geoscience and Earth system modeling and data assimilation. The purpose is to advance seasonal-to-decadal weather and climate prediction through improved understanding and representation of air-sea interactions. This grant is not associated with a set-aside program. As a major research university, the University of Texas at Austin has an extensive track record of performing...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center awarded a $435,291 grant for research to The University of Texas at San Antonio. The grant supports a research project titled "Comparing the Material Properties of Titan Aerosols and Laboratory Made Aerosol Analogs." No set-aside designation was used for this award. The prime contractor is The University of Texas at San Antonio. The parent organization of the awardee is the University of Texas System. The place of...
