This federal contract award, valued at $696,153.00, was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the SETI Institute, a non-profit research organization focused on astrobiology, planetary science, and the search for extraterrestrial intelligence. The award supports the development and field testing of an integrated rover-drill system for accessing subsurface samples on Mars. The goal is to advance capabilities for detecting organic biomarkers and potential signs of life, which is a key focus of NASA's Planetary Science program. This contract is not associated with any set-aside designations. The work will be performed at an analog site in the Atacama Desert in Chile, and will involve the use of prototype instruments comparable to those planned for future Mars exploration missions, such as the ExoMars rover. The SETI Institute has a history of performing technical support services and research for NASA, including work related to planetary protection protocols.
