The contract is to leverage the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Unmanned Aircraft Services (UAS) test sites to conduct research tasks into unmanned and autonomous flight technologies that will provide NASA's Armstrong Flight Research Center (AFRC) a contracting...
- This federal contract award is a $599,220.19 cooperative agreement between Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University (Virginia Tech) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center. The agreement is funded under NASA's Transformational Tools and Technologies (TTT) component, specifically Subtopic 2.1.3 "Benchmark Experiments for CFD Validation". The goal of the research is to produce detailed experimental data sets of smooth wall flows...
- This is a $350,925 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University (Virginia Tech) for research to quantify how the ionosphere and thermosphere respond to electromagnetic and kinetic energy inputs from the magnetosphere. The award has a period of performance through July 31, 2026 and is not a set-aside contract. Virginia Tech is a leading public research university and land-grant institution that has a long...
- This is a federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University, doing business as Virginia Tech, in the amount of $697,557.00. The grant is for a research project to investigate the role of ultra-low frequency (ULF) waves in energy transfer in the solar wind-magnetosphere-ionosphere-thermosphere (SW-M-I-T) system, using three data sets and numerical simulations. The grant does not have a set-aside...
- This federal contract award, valued at $280,843.00, was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Langley Research Center to the National Institute of Aerospace Associates (NIA), a non-profit research and graduate education institute. The contract is for a "Supersonic Transport Scheduling and Fleet Analysis Study" and does not have a set-aside designation. The contract involves NIA conducting research and analysis to assess the effects of economic modeling...
This federal contract award to Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University (Virginia Tech) is for the "SUPERSONIC TESTING OF A NEUTRAL WIND/DRAG DETECTOR FOR LEO" project, with a ceiling value of $34,700.00. The award was made by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Marshall Space Flight Center, a civilian federal agency. The contract is a Cooperative Agreement, which is a type of assistance instrument rather than a standard procurement contract. The award does not have a set-aside designation. As the prime contractor, Virginia Tech will leverage its expertise in areas such as aerospace systems, data analytics, and materials science to conduct the supersonic testing work. This award is likely part of NASA's broader efforts in the field of low-Earth orbit (LEO) research and development.
