About this award
The California Institute of Technology (Caltech) has been awarded a $20.6 million cooperative agreement by NASA's Shared Services Center to develop and operate archives that make scientific data from NASA astrophysics flight missions and NASA-funded researchers accessible to the U.S. research community. The contract, which runs through July 31, 2030, supports Caltech's role as a premier federal research partner in advancing space exploration and scientific discovery. This award carries no set-aside designation, reflecting Caltech's competitive success in open federal procurements. The work will be performed at Caltech's primary location in Pasadena, California.
This cooperative agreement aligns with NASA's Science Mission Directorate's commitment to ensuring broad public access to valuable astrophysics data. Caltech's responsibilities under this contract include ingesting, managing, and distributing scientific datasets from NASA's astrophysics missions while maintaining comprehensive bibliographic and catalog information systems. The award reflects Caltech's established capabilities in operating large-scale data archive systems and its track record of delivering cutting-edge research infrastructure to support the nation's space science initiatives.
Description
The goal of this opportunity is to fund archives that make scientific data from NASA astrophysics flight missions and NASA-funded researchers available to the US community, or that hold bibliographic and catalog information related to those data.
