- This is a $135,000.00 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. The grant is to support research on how a planet's interactions with its host star can determine its evolutionary path, specifically focusing on how the plasma environment responds to the star's dynamic radiation and magnetic field. This grant is not set aside for any particular business type. The...
This federal contract award, ID 80NSSC20K1388, was granted to the Regents of the University of California, doing business as the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley). The $134,999.83 contract is a training grant provided by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to support a statistical analysis of Mars atmospheric ion escape data collected by the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution (MAVEN) spacecraft. The goal of the study is to investigate the processes that heat and accelerate ions above the Martian exobase, in order to better understand how the planet's once Earth-like atmosphere was lost over time. This research aligns with high-priority science objectives identified in NASA's Planetary Science Decadal Survey. The parent organization, the State of California Controller's Office, will administer any resulting funding provided to UC Berkeley under this award.
