- This federal contract award is for the Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM), an optical lightning detection instrument on the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) GOES-R-series meteorological satellites. The contract, valued at $127,942.19, was awarded to the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH), a public research university, to conduct research and development related to the GLM instrument. The contract is a grant for research and does not have a set-aside designation. As a...
- This is a $71,536.99 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) for two searches of the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) data for sub-threshold short gamma-ray bursts. The grant runs from October 1, 2020 to September 30, 2023 and does not have a set-aside designation. UAH is a public research university that frequently supports NASA's mission through federal contracts and grants, particularly in areas like space...
- This is a $40,061 grant for research awarded by the Shared Services Center (a civilian agency) to the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH). The contract is for "FAST NICER FOLLOW-UP OF SELECTED GAMMA-RAY BURSTS: SEARCHING FOR SIGNATURES MAGNETAR CENTRAL ENGINES", indicating it involves research related to gamma-ray bursts and magnetar central engines. The award is not associated with a set-aside program and has an ultimate completion date of June 2, 2026. UAH is a public...
- This federal contract award, issued by the Shared Services Center, provides a $325,000.00 grant to the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) for the "TOLNET LIDAR MEASUREMENTS FOR TEMPO VALIDATION AND SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH" project. The contract is not set aside for any specific business type. UAH, a public research university and non-profit educational institution, has a robust track record of delivering sophisticated research and development services to federal agencies like...
- This federal contract award, valued at $134,019.62, was granted to The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) by the U.S. government's Shared Services Center. The contract is a grant for research focused on examining the microphysical properties of electrified snowfall events using satellite and model data. The research aims to improve understanding of the interrelated cloud electrification and precipitation processes, and how they relate to broader thermodynamic and weather system...
- This federal contract award, valued at $748,742.99, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Louisiana Board of Regents, a state government entity, through a Cooperative Agreement. The purpose of the award is to expand an existing project called TETRA-II (The TGF and Energetic Thunderstorm Rooftop Array II), which focuses on studying the production of intense millisecond-scale fluxes of gamma rays associated with terrestrial lightning, known as Terrestrial...
This federal contract award from the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, is for a project titled "Production of Energetic Emission and Acceleration of Particles in Thunderstorms: Terrestrial Gamma-Ray Flashes (TGFs)". The $75,000.00 award was made to the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) on September 1, 2016, with a target completion date of April 3, 2020. The project seeks to differentiate between two proposed mechanisms for the creation of TGFs, which are high-energy photon bursts associated with thunderstorms, by conducting simultaneous observations from a NASA ER-2 aircraft equipped with gamma-ray detectors, optical sensors, and electric field antennae. The contract is not designated as a set-aside. UAH, a public research university, has a history of supporting government missions through federal contracts and grants in areas such as missile defense, space exploration, and atmospheric sciences.
