- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $3,053,928.42 grant to the University of California, Berkeley for the advancement of the Enceladus Organic Analyzer (EOA) to Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 6. EOA is an innovative microchip capillary electrophoresis (CE) system with laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) detection that can analyze the quantitative compositional and chiral organic molecules in extraterrestrial locations to understand their history, habitability, and...
- This is a $107,052.73 training grant awarded by the Shared Services Center of NASA to the Georgia Tech Research Corporation, doing business as the Office of Sponsored Programs. The award is for the design and implementation of low-power, compact, and highly sensitive analytical instrumentation techniques for organic and inorganic analysis of the subsurface ice on Jupiter's moon Europa. This work will build a capillary electrophoresis-laser-induced fluorescence (CE-LIF) system for amino acid...
- This federal contract award to Georgia TECH Research Corp, doing business as the Office of Sponsored Programs, provides funding for the development of a deep subsurface access vehicle system for exploring Europa, one of Jupiter's moons. The proposed platform would enable access to a subsurface water volume within 5 kilometers of the surface, with the capability to reach depths up to 15 kilometers. The work will adapt existing Georgia Tech vehicle technologies, including the ICEFIN (an...
- This $785,689.28 federal grant award to the Georgia Tech Research Corporation (GTRC) supports the early development of the Small Bodies / Icy Moon Penetrator Organic Analyzer (SB/IM-POA), a highly compact and robust ultraviolet-visible/fluorescence instrument for measuring organic compounds on planetary bodies. The instrument is designed to meet stringent size, weight, power, and durability requirements for space missions, including tolerance to high G-loads. The grant will fund the...
- This federal contract award, valued at $120,000.00, was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Georgia Institute of Technology Research Corporation (Georgia Tech Research Corp) to conduct research on the multiphase behavior of Europa's ice shell. The research aims to understand the evolution and potential habitability of Europa's subsurface ocean, which is of great scientific interest for the possibility of supporting extraterrestrial life. The contract,...
- This federal contract is a $282,863 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Georgia Tech Research Corporation, doing business as the Office of Sponsored Programs, a non-profit research organization and state institution of higher education. The grant is for a research project to better understand the nature and impact of potential water vapor plumes on the Jovian moon Europa through in-situ plasma and magnetic field observations from past and future...
- This federal contract award, valued at $1,004,963.55, was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Georgia Tech Research Corporation (Georgia Tech) for the "Field Exploration and Life Detection Sampling for Planetary and Astrobiology Research (FELDSPAR)" program. The grant supports research to determine the spatial and temporal resolution of biodiversity in seemingly homogenous environments, coordinate field, field lab, and laboratory analytical...
- This federal contract award, valued at $3,070,308.00, was granted 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 advance a prototype instrument from Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 4 to TRL 6, enabling the identification and quantification of compounds of astrobiological significance in planetary gases and liquids, such as icy moon ocean water and the...
- This federal contract award to Georgia Tech Research Corporation, doing business as the Office of Sponsored Programs, supports the RISE-UP (Ross Ice Shelf and Europa Underwater Probe) project. The $3,811,818 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) aims to develop a small, autonomous underwater vehicle capable of exploring under the Ross Ice Shelf in Antarctica as an analog for potential future missions to Europa, Jupiter's icy moon. The project involves...
- NASA awarded a $124,562 SBIR Phase I contract to Connecticut Analytical Corporation, a small business manufacturer, to develop technologies for in-situ organic analysis of ice grains captured from the water plumes of moons such as Enceladus and Europa. The proposed approach leverages prior NASA-funded research on electrospray ionization and hypervelocity ice grain capture to enable real-time analysis of organic content, while preserving samples for potential future return missions. This award...
