WASHINGTON - NASA and the Air Force are looking for university and industry partners to advance hypersonic research. NASA's Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate in Washington and the Air Force Research Laboratory's Office of Science Research at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio, have released a broad agency announcement describing their intent to establish three national hypersonic science centers. As much as $30 million will be used to fund the centers over five years, with a maximum grant of some $2 million a year. Details: www.grants.gov (Source: NASA, 09/22/08)
