About this award
The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) was awarded a $1.69M firm fixed-price definitive contract by NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center on September 27, 2021, to lead end-to-end instrument flight software development for the Starburst Mission. The contract, which extends through May 26, 2026, was awarded without set-aside designation following NASA's 2020 Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) solicitation. As a public research university with extensive experience supporting federal space science and engineering initiatives, UAH will deliver critical software development capabilities essential to the Starburst Mission's scientific objectives. The work will be performed at UAH's facilities in Huntsville, Alabama.
This award reflects UAH's established role as a trusted partner for NASA's advanced space technology programs. The university's demonstrated expertise in systems engineering, software development, and mission-critical applications positions it well to support the complex requirements of instrument flight software integration. The fixed-price contract structure provides budget certainty for this well-defined development effort, which is consistent with UAH's broader portfolio of research and development work for federal agencies including the Department of Defense and National Science Foundation.
