- This federal grant award to the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin) supports research into the evolution of Mercury's core and magnetic field. The award, valued at $458,936.10, was made by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) under the Solar System Workings research program. The research will use interior evolution models and 3D numerical dynamo models to investigate how Mercury's core and dynamo-generated magnetic field have changed over time. This work is intended...
- This federal contract award, identified as 80NSSC22K0906, was granted by the Shared Services Center, a civilian federal agency, to the University of Texas at Austin. The $566,511.00 grant is for research on the "Quasi 6-Year Oscillation in Earth Rotation, Deformation and Gravity Field and Connections with Surface Mass Load and Core-Mantle Interactions". The award does not have a set-aside designation. The University of Texas at Austin, a major research institution, is the prime...
- NASA's Shared Services Center issued a purchase order to the Smithsonian Institution, operating as the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory, for $294,548 on May 1, 2024, to provide technical support for the DSCOVR Faraday Cup solar wind detector instrument. Performance takes place in Cambridge, Massachusetts, with an ultimate completion date of April 30, 2027.

- This is a $4,658,955.00 cost-no-fee definitive contract awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Texas at Dallas (UTD). The contract is for the development of a Phase A-B Bridge TPS Instrument for the Geospace Dynamics Constellation (GDC) spacecraft program. The contract has an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2025. The original federal contract opportunity was a solicitation under NASA's Third Stand Alone Missions of Opportunity Notice...
- This federal contract award, valued at $287,210.15, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Texas at Austin, a component of the University of Texas System. The contract supports research to investigate the build-up of massive quiescent galaxies at high redshifts (z > 3), when the universe was less than 2 billion years old. The work leverages data from the Spitzer-HETDEX Exploratory Large Area (SHELA) survey, which provides wide-area...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $725,762 grant to the Regents of the University of Michigan, Office of Research and Sponsored Projects, doing business as the University of Michigan, to develop a magnetic data-driven global model to simulate the time-dependent state of the inner heliosphere from the top of the chromosphere to 1 Astronomical Unit (AU). The model will use the AWSOM-R global magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model developed at the University of Michigan to...
- This federal contract award, valued at $264,708.82, was issued by the Shared Services Center (8000|8000|80NSSC-A) to the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin) to conduct research on rapidly designing spacecraft trajectories around small bodies such as asteroids and comets. The research aims to develop fast and accurate gravity field modeling techniques, coupled with a comprehensive catalogue of stable orbits and trajectories around small bodies, to enable more rapid and thorough...
NASA's Shared Services Center awarded a purchase order to the University of Texas at Austin for geodynamo research services on April 1, 2026, with a ceiling value of $69,697.00. Performance occurs at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Maryland. The work requires generation of 1,028 geodynamo model solutions using an open-source dynamo model to populate initial ensemble conditions for NASA's Geomagnetic Ensemble Modeling System (GEMS), which performs geomagnetic secular variation forecasting. Solutions must meet strict criteria: time intervals between ensemble members must be at least 0.5 percent of the magnetic free-decay time or longer, and the poloidal magnetic field magnitude at the mean surface must fall within three standard deviations of the ensemble mean. Deliverables include the solutions, Fortran subroutines for reading them, and comprehensive documentation covering simulation configurations, data formats, and ensemble statistics. Performance period is six months from fund receipt. This was a sole-source procurement directed to UT Austin under FAR 12.102(a) authority, posted May 12, 2026, with a capability submission deadline of May 14, 2026.
