The U of A is awarded more [[NASA]] grants for space exploration than any other university nationally.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.arizona.edu/marketing/achieve/achieve-nicole.php | title=The First UA Undergrad to Command a Camera on Mars | accessdate=2006-04-18 |archiveurl = http://web.archive.org/web/20060210134420/http://www.arizona.edu/marketing/achieve/achieve-nicole.php
UA is a member of the [[Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy]], a consortium of institutions pursuing research in astronomy. The association operates observatories and [[telescopes]], notably [[Kitt Peak National Observatory]] located just outside of Tucson. UA is a member of the [[Association of American Universities]], and the sole representative from Arizona to this group. Led by Roger Angel, researchers in the [[Steward Observatory]] Mirror Lab at UA are working in concert to build the world's most advanced telescope. Known as the [[Giant Magellan Telescope]], the instrument will produce images 10 times sharper than those from the Earth-orbiting [[Hubble Telescope]]. The telescope is set to be completed in 2016 at a cost of $500 million USD. Researchers from at least nine institutions are working to secure the funding for the project. The telescope will include seven 18-ton mirrors capable of providing clear images of [[volcanoes]] and riverbeds on [[Mars]] and [[mountains]] on the moon at a rate 40 times faster than the world's current large telescopes. The mirrors of the Giant Magellan Telescope will be built at the U of A and transported to a permanent mountaintop site in the [[Chile]]an [[Andes]] where the telescope will be constructed.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.lpl.arizona.edu/undergrad/classes/fall2005/Lauretta_102-14/SciAZ/GiantMagTel.htm | title=Giant Magellan Telescope | accessdate=2006-07-12}}</ref>
Reaching [[Mars]] in March 2006, the [[Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter]] contained the HiRISE camera, with Primary Investigator is [[scientist]] [[Alfred McEwen]] as the lead on the project. This [[NASA]] mission to Mars carried a UA-designed camera expected to capture the highest-resolution images of the planet ever seen. The journey of the orbiter was 300 million miles. The project is expected to be in its Primary Science Phase in the month of October.
The [[National Science Foundation]] funded the [[iPlant Collaborative]] in 2008.<ref>{{cite news |title= National Science Foundation Awards $50 Million for Collaborative Plant Biology Project to Tackle Greater Science Questions |work= News release |date= January 30, 2008 |publisher= National Science Foundation |url= http://www.nsf.gov/news/news_summ.jsp?cntn_id=111048 |accessdate= September 21, 2011 }}</ref>
