- This is a $493,305 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Hawaii at Manoa, a land-grant, sea-grant, and space-grant public research university in Hawaii. The grant is not associated with a set-aside program. The grant funding supports three key research objectives: 1) characterizing the mobility of phosphorus in olivine crystals in the lunar crust and upper mantle, 2) determining if the phosphorus enrichment observed in a previous study...
- This is a $235,547.78 grant award from NASA's Shared Services Center to the University of Hawaii (UH) at Manoa for research on detecting molecular water on the lunar surface. The project aims to use the Faint Object Infrared Camera for the SOFIA Telescope (FORCAST) on the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) to observe the Moon and characterize the diurnal variability and spatial distribution of any water. This research is relevant to understanding the interactions between...
- The University of Hawaii (UH) at Manoa, a public university system in Hawaii, has been awarded a $387,539 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research on surface-exposed water ice on the Moon. The research aims to directly detect this ice through its unique infrared (IR) absorptions, with the potential to infer up to 30% ice by weight. The grant has an ultimate completion date of July 31, 2025 and does not have a set-aside designation, reflecting UH's...
- This is a $60,000 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center (a civilian federal agency) to the University of Hawaii at Manoa to analyze spectroscopic data from the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) on the abundance of water on the lunar surface. The project will focus on how the solar wind and temperature/location affect the distribution of lunar water. This research aligns with the Planetary Science Division's goal of understanding the sources and migration of lunar...
- This federal contract award, with ID 80NSSC19K0369, was granted by NASA's Shared Services Center to the University of Hawaii at Manoa, a public university system and land-grant, sea-grant, and space-grant institution. The $293,316.78 grant is for research to investigate the shielding effect of Earth's magnetotail on the formation of lunar surface water using data from the Moon Mineralogy Mapper (M3) instrument. The research aims to verify previous observations regarding the impact of the...
- This federal contract award is a $119,815.41 grant for research to the University of Hawaii at Manoa, a public state university in Hawaii. The contract is funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and supports three tasks related to NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) extended mission goals in the lunar polar regions. The tasks involve using data from the Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter (LOLA) instrument and Kaguya Spectral Profiler to create maps of lunar mineralogy...
- This federal contract award was made by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Hawaii (UH) for research related to the lunar interior. The $426,271.05 grant, titled "EXPLORING THE TIME-TEMPERATURE HISTORY OF THE LUNAR INTERIOR WITH ADVANCED MATERIALS CHARACTERIZATIO," aims to investigate the cooling, crystal accumulation, and metasomatism processes of a pristine lunar troctolite sample returned from the Apollo 17 mission. The research seeks to...
- This federal contract award, with ID 80NSSC23K1478, is a grant for research valued at $307,365.00 awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Hawaii (UH) at Manoa. The grant is for a project titled "UNVEILING THE FORMATION OF HEMATITE ON THE MOON BY LABORATORY SIMULATIONS OF MICROMETEORITE BOMBARDMENT AND IRRADIATION BY OXYGEN IONS, PROTONS, AND UV PHOTONS". The award has a period of performance through November 30, 2025 and does not have...
- This federal contract award was granted by a civilian U.S. government agency to the University of Hawaii at Manoa.
