- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has awarded a $639,462 grant to the University of California, Berkeley to conduct research in support of the Juno spacecraft mission to Jupiter. The grant will fund the use of the Upgraded Very Large Array (VLA) to produce global maps of Jupiter's atmosphere at 1-4 cm wavelengths, which will provide critical context for data collected by Juno's Microwave Radiometer (MWR). The research team will also use Gemini and Keck telescopes to obtain...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $135,000.00 training grant contract to the Regents of the University of Michigan to conduct research on Jupiter's magnetosphere. The contract, which does not have a set-aside designation, aims to develop a better understanding of the global configuration, internal and external variations, and the dynamics of Jupiter's magnetosphere through magnetohydrodynamic modeling. The research will leverage data from previous and ongoing...
