We are excited to announce that the Ennis Group has been awarded a University of Otago Research Grant (UORG) for 2020. The funding will go towards commissioning new equipment to replicate the surface chemistry of the outer Solar System and uncover new pathways for the formation of nucleobases in planetary ices. Such chemistry is a main scientific target of the recently announced Dragonfly mission to Saturn moon Titan (arriving 2034) where an autonomous drone will sample the organic-rich landscape in search of these building-blocks of life.
