- This is a $415,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) to conduct experimental and petrological investigations into the chemical differentiation processes that occurred on the Ureilite parent body, one of the most ancient achondrite meteorites. The goal is to better understand the earliest planetary differentiation processes in the solar system by studying the metal-mineral melt processes (smelting)...
- This is a $171,350.56 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Universities Space Research Association (USRA) for research on the differentiation and early thermal evolution of meteorite parent bodies. The research aims to model the thermal evolution and core formation of various types of meteorite parent bodies, using methods like finite difference modeling and Stokes flow. Key objectives include quantifying the fractions of metal and silicate melting,...

The research is focused on studying volatile-rich impact melt and...
- This is a $287,521.00 grant for research awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Universities Space Research Association (USRA), a non-profit research organization. The grant supports two interdependent tasks: 1) characterizing the geochemical, petrological, and geophysical records of lunar mare provinces that lack clear associations with large impact basins, and 2) using numerical modeling to constrain the volcanic and tectonic structure of these regions....
- This is a $859,305.00 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the Universities Space Research Association (USRA) for a project titled "RYUGU AND THE QUEST FOR UNALTERED CI-LIKE MATERIALS FROM THE EARLY SOLAR SYSTEM". The project will run until April 14, 2026. USRA is a nonprofit research organization that partners with universities, companies, and government agencies to advance space science and exploration. The grant does not have a set-aside designation. As...
- This $90,000.00 grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Universities Space Research Association (USRA), a nonprofit research organization, to provide support for students to attend the 86th through 88th Annual Meetings (2023-2025) of the Meteoritical Society. The grant does not have a set-aside designation. USRA has extensive experience supporting NASA's science missions and programs, including in planetary science, Earth observation, and aerospace...
- NASA awarded a $377,452 grant to the University of New Mexico (UNM) to investigate the early history of the solar system. The research will focus on analyzing primitive meteorites, conducting experiments to reproduce early solar system processes, and performing isotopic analyses of samples. The grant supports three primary tasks: 1) a petrologic study of refractory inclusions in low-grade carbonaceous chondrites and an investigation of the effects of metamorphism on chondrite parent bodies, 2)...
- This is a $1,040,202 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Universities Space Research Association (USRA), a nonprofit research organization.
