About this award
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $746,985.56 Cooperative Agreement to the University of Nebraska at Omaha (UNO), a campus of the University of Nebraska system, to conduct research and develop technologies to support astronaut health and performance for space exploration missions. The project aligns with the goals of NASA's Human Exploration and Operations Mission Directorate and Human Research Program, which seek to discover effective countermeasures against the negative physiological effects of long-duration spaceflight, such as reduced muscle mass, strength, and endurance. This contract is not set aside. As the prime contractor, UNO will partner with other academic institutions to carry out the research and development activities.
Description
The project described in this proposal targets the human health countermeasures element, particularly, the risk of impaired performance due to reduced muscle mass, strength & endurance. IT targets GAP M9: identify and validate exploration countermeasure hardware for the maintenance of muscle function, and GAP M7: develop the most efficient and effective exercise program for the maintenance of muscle function. The human exploration and operations (HEO) and space technology mission directorates goals and the human research program s (HRP s) goals closely align with the objectives of this project, i.e., research and technology development to support crew health and performance in space exploration missions. The HRP is dedicated to discovering the best methods and technologies to support safe and productive space travel. HRP s goal is to provide human health and performance countermeasures, knowledge, technologies, and tools to enable safe, reliable, and productive human space exploration. The desired center will be JSC within the human adaptation and countermeasures division headed by DR. Bloomberg.
