About this award

This federal contract award, valued at $868,695.00, was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the SETI Institute, a non-profit scientific research organization in Mountain View, California. The award is a cooperative agreement that will support directed work packages within astrobiology, focusing on two areas: 1) computational studies of the assembly of the earliest components of metabolism to further understanding of the origin and early evolution of life on Earth and the potential for life to emerge in other habitable environments, and 2) the simulation of a virtual cell containing all of the main metabolic pathways to support the emergence and early proliferation of life. The award does not utilize any set-aside designations, indicating selection was based on the SETI Institute's technical expertise in astrobiology and planetary science. The Institute has a history of performing technical support services and scientific research for NASA and other federal agencies through both contract and grant awards.
