- This is a $435,469.13 grant awarded to The Johns Hopkins University by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Shared Services Center on June 1, 2016 for the project "Characterizing Mercury's Energetic Electron Events: A Phenomenological Study of a Unique Magnetosphere." The grant supports a study of the transient bursts of energetic particles produced in Mercury's magnetosphere, using data from the MESSENGER spacecraft. The research focuses on four main aspects of...
- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to The Johns Hopkins University, a private non-profit research university, to conduct a targeted study of processes in Mercury's exosphere. The three-year, $331,585.66 grant has the objectives of: 1) using ultraviolet and visible spectrometer (UVVS) data and a Monte Carlo code to determine the overall "background" structure of the sodium (Na), magnesium (Mg), and calcium (Ca)...
- This is a $319,012.72 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian U.S. government agency, to The Johns Hopkins University on June 1, 2016. The objective of this grant is to develop a comprehensive model of Mercury's magnetospheric magnetic field to better understand the interactions between Mercury's interior, surface, and magnetosphere, which is relevant to the Solar System Roadmap's goal of determining how the solar system evolved to its current state. The grant supports three main...
- This $466,435.93 federal grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University to investigate the water ice and other volatile deposits in the polar regions of the planet Mercury. The work will utilize data from the MESSENGER (MErcury Surface, Space ENvironment, GEochemistry and Ranging) spacecraft mission to produce new digital elevation models and analyze the illumination and thermal conditions of these polar deposits. The proposed...
- This federal contract award to the Regents of the University of Colorado, a public research university, is for a NASA-funded project to systematically analyze and further explore data from the MESSENGER (Mercury Surface, Space Environment, Geochemistry and Ranging) spacecraft's Mercury Atmospheric and Surface Composition Spectrometer (MASCS) instrument. The goal is to search for episodic behavior in Mercury's exosphere, potentially linked to space weather events, that has not been adequately...
- This federal contract award, valued at $207,287.04, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University to conduct research on characterizing the geochemical terranes of the planet Mercury. The research aims to provide insights into the processes that dominated Mercury's crustal evolution, including the formation of the primary crust, volcanic resurfacing, and impact modification. The contract leverages data from the MESSENGER (MErcury Surface,...
- This was a $179,894.38 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC) on July 28, 2017. The grant funded research to analyze tracking data from the MESSENGER (MErcury Surface, Space ENvironment, GEochemistry and Ranging) spacecraft mission, which was the first to orbit Mercury. The goal was to develop high-resolution gravity field models and estimate local variations in crustal density....
- This $574,466.89 grant award to The Johns Hopkins University (JHU) from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center supports frontier measurements using high-resolution infrared spectroscopy to advance compositional studies of volatiles (ices) released from the nuclei of active comets. The goal is to understand inner coma physics, sources of volatile release, and the molecular inventory of comet nuclei to test the degree to which formation conditions and...
- This is a $487,285.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University, a private, non-profit research university located in Baltimore, Maryland. The grant is for a project titled "UNDERSTANDING SOURCE AND LOSS PROCESSES IN MERCURY'S EXOSPHERE USING MESSENGER OBSERVATIONS". The award has an ultimate completion date of October 9, 2026 and was made on October 10, 2023. There is no set-aside designation, indicating the award was...
- The Johns Hopkins University was awarded a $545,507 grant on May 7, 2020, to provide Co-Investigator support for the Mercury Radiometer and Thermal Infrared Spectrometer (MERTIS) instrument aboard the European Space Agency's Mercury Planetary Orbiter (MPO) within the joint ESA/JAXA BepiColombo mission. This contract, designated T19-SMDSS19-0009, supports the scientific investigation activities of Co-Investigator Greenhagen and will continue through the ultimate completion date of May 6, 2027....
