This is a $135,000 training grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to Northern Arizona University, a public research university located in Flagstaff, Arizona. The contract aims to use Raman spectroscopy to better understand the quantity and composition of hydrocarbons, such as propane, ethylene, and acetylene, in the lakes and seas on Titan, the largest moon of Saturn. The research will involve studying the phase transitions of different nitrogen-methane-ethane-propane mixtures at Titan surface conditions to constrain the temperatures and ratios of liquid and solid material. This will provide insights into the composition of Titan's lakes and the surrounding geology. The award does not have a set-aside designation. As a Hispanic Serving Institution and state-controlled university, Northern Arizona University has previously conducted planetary science and space exploration research for NASA, among other federal contracting work.
