- This federal contract award (NNX15AM55G) was granted by NASA to the University of Colorado to re-assess global ion escape rates from the Martian atmosphere using data from the Mars Express (MEX) mission. The objective is to provide improved estimates of ion escape from Mars that can be directly compared to measurements from the ongoing MAVEN mission. The $199,822.75 grant will fund research to determine the measured flux of oxygen, carbon monoxide, and other heavy ion species, and to estimate...
- This federal contract award, with ID 80NSSC17K0735, was issued by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Trustees of Boston University, a private university in Boston, Massachusetts. The $435,578 grant supports research to understand how Mars' crustal magnetic fields influence the density, composition, and electrodynamics of the Martian ionosphere. The work will primarily involve analysis of data from NASA's Mars Atmosphere and Volatile...
- This federal contract award, valued at $594,278, was granted by a civilian federal agency to The Regents of the University of Colorado (CU) to analyze new and unanticipated solar occultation measurements of the Mars thermosphere (120-200 km) made by the Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) Monitor (EUVM) onboard the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution (MAVEN) orbiter. The award, which is classified as a Grant for Research, has an ultimate completion date of August 20, 2026. CU is a prominent public...
- This is a $333,295.00 grant award to The Regents of the University of Colorado (doing business as the University of Colorado) from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) for research on the upper atmosphere of Mars. The award supports analysis of data from two Mars spacecraft, the Mars Express mission's SPICAM instrument and the MAVEN mission's IUVS instrument, using Mars general circulation models to characterize the dynamics of the Martian middle and upper atmosphere. This...
- This is a $372,851.82 grant awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center to the University of Colorado (CU) for a research project titled "Temporal Evolution of Plasma near Mars: A Multi-Point Approach." The project aims to use data from the MAVEN and Mars Express spacecraft to study the temporal and spatial variability of the Martian plasma environment, addressing key questions about the response time to changes in upstream conditions, the stability of plasma conditions at low...
- This federal contract award, valued at $276,313.37, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Trustees of Boston University, a private university located in Boston, Massachusetts. The project involves coupling existing data from NASA's Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN (MAVEN) mission spacecraft's Neutral Gas and Ion Mass Spectrometer (NGIMS) instrument with the Boston University Mars Ionosphere Model (BU-MIM). The objective is to interpret MAVEN's...
- The University of Colorado was awarded a $378,264 research grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to study and compare the induced magnetospheres and ion escape at Venus and Mars. This work utilizes publicly available data from NASA's Planetary Data System (PDS) and the European Space Agency's (ESA) Planetary Science Archive (PSA) and aligns with NASA's Solar System Working (SSW) program. The grant, awarded on May 1, 2020, is a civilian contract without any set-aside...
- This is a $52,170 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of California, doing business as the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley). The grant is for the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution (MAVEN) mission, which has collected extensive measurements of Mars' magnetic field. MAVEN represents a significant increase in planetary data that is transforming the field of space physics research. The grant has no...
- This contract award is to Trustees of Boston University, a private university in Boston, MA, by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The contract, valued at $353,737, is for research to study the Total Electron Content (TEC) of the Martian ionosphere. This research aims to support NASA's MAVEN mission, which is studying atmospheric escape from Mars. The contract will utilize data from NASA's SHARAD radar system on the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) and ESA's MARSIS...
- This federal contract award, NNX16AJ42G, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of California, doing business as the University of California, Berkeley. The $100,962.89 grant will fund a two-year study to analyze data from NASA's MAVEN (Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution) mission, with the objective of characterizing the structure and composition of Mars' upper atmosphere and understanding the impact of atmospheric tides on...
