About this award

This is a $3,318,911 definitive, cost-no-fee contract awarded by NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center on March 19, 2020 to Trustees of Boston University for the Lunar Environment Heliospheric X-Ray Imager (LEXI) project. The LEXI instrument will image the interaction between the solar wind and Earth's magnetosphere to study the conditions under which magnetopause reconnection is steady or variable.

The contract includes two subcontracts - one with The Johns Hopkins University to model emissions and backgrounds, and another with the University of Alaska Fairbanks to provide modeling and data analysis support. The original NASA Research Announcement (ROSES-2018) solicited basic and applied research across space and Earth science topics, with awards made as grants, cooperative agreements, contracts, or interagency transfers. This contract was not set aside for any specific business type.
