This is a $137,865 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Purdue University to advance the understanding of lunar pyroclastic deposits. The goal of this 3-year research program is to characterize the mineralogic components and eruption characteristics of these volcanic deposits on the Moon, which may provide insight into early lunar volcanism and potential resources for future lunar exploration. The grant does not have a set-aside designation. As a premier...
This is a $87,455.86 training grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Purdue University, a research university located in West Lafayette, Indiana. The award supports research to better understand the formation and evolution of lunar impact basins, including the factors that influence basin size and the development of mascons (areas of excess mass at basin centers). Specifically, the research aims to model the complete evolution of lunar basins, from initial...
This federal contract award, valued at $872,707.00, was issued by the Shared Services Center (an alternate name for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration or NASA) to Purdue University, a non-profit educational institution. The contract requires Purdue to execute a balanced science program based on guidance from the National Academies, administration priorities, and direction from Congress. This includes participating as a key partner in NASA's exploration initiative, focusing on...
This is a $90,000.00 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Purdue University for research that contributes to understanding the origin, evolution, and geologic properties of massive impact basins on planetary bodies. The award is not set aside for any specific business type. As a leading research university, Purdue has a long history of supporting NASA's planetary science goals through federal contract and grant awards. This particular effort aligns with...
This federal contract award is a grant for $564,463.00 from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Purdue University, an institution of higher education and research located in West Lafayette, Indiana. The primary objective of the contract is to explore the impact environment of the early solar system and investigate whether impacts are an important chondrule forming process. The contract has a completion date of March 31, 2025 and was awarded on April 1, 2020. No...

This is a $286,032.03 grant awarded to Purdue University by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research on planetary basin formation. The principal investigator, Brandon Johnson, will oversee the project, which involves using hydrocode models and analyzing gravity and topography data to study the crustal structure of planetary basins. A graduate student researcher will perform much of the day-to-day modeling and lead manuscript preparation. The research will also...

This federal contract award to Purdue University was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) under the Lunar Data Analysis Program (LDAP) to address a long-standing problem in lunar science. The $500,725.65 grant will support research to determine whether craters on the lunar surface have reached a "saturation" state where the number of countable craters does not increase as new craters form. The researchers will use data from NASA's Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory (GRAIL) mission to model the formation of lunar crustal porosity and connect it to the cumulative history of impact cratering. This research aims to provide a new perspective on the contentious issue of crater saturation. The contract does not have a set-aside designation.
