GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) - A University of North Dakota professor has been awarded a $276,000 federal grant to study asteroids.
Paul Hardersen teaches in the UND department space studies and runs the UND observatory. He says the three-year project should provide information about early physical and chemical conditions in the solar system.
