This is a $30,330,101 cost-plus-award-fee contract awarded by NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center to Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation for the ICESat-2 Mission Operations Center (MOC) Support Center. The contract provides highly specialized engineering services for mission operations support to meet the ICESat-2 science objectives. ICESat-2 is a NASA Earth science mission that measures changes in the height of the earth's ice sheets, sea ice, and vegetation. Northrop Grumman Systems...
This is a $195,581 firm-fixed-price contract awarded by NASA to Science Systems and Applications, Inc. (SSAI), a woman-owned small business, to support the ICESat-2 mission. The ICESat-2 mission is primarily an altimetry mission to study changes in ice, snow, and biomass, but it will also obtain profiles of atmospheric backscatter data from 14 km to the ground. The main purpose of the atmospheric data is to characterize the atmosphere to support the analysis and interpretation of the altimetry...
This is a delivery order awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Kennedy Space Center to Astrotech Space Operations, LLC, a subsidiary of Lockheed Martin Corporation, to provide payload processing services for the ICESat-2 (Ice, Cloud and land Elevation Satellite-2) mission. The $2,795,761.00 firm-fixed-price order was issued on June 14, 2017 and is set to be completed by October 12, 2018. Astrotech Space Operations has received over $50 million in federal contract...
This is a Cost Plus Fixed Fee Delivery Order awarded by NASA Langley Research Center to Cornell Technical Services LLC, a small technology and professional services company based in Columbia, Maryland. The order is for the ICE, Cloud and Land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) Standing Review Board (SRB) in 2016. The ICESat-2 mission is a project within NASA's Science Mission Directorate focused on studying the Earth's ice sheets, sea ice, and vegetation. The purpose of this task order is to...
This is a delivery order awarded by the Goddard Space Flight Center (NASA) to The Aerospace Corporation, a federally funded research and development center (FFRDC), for specialized engineering, evaluation, and test services related to the ICESat-2 satellite mission. The contract, valued at $80,149.19, supports revising the Laser Reference System (LRS) star catalog, including investigating potential improvements to star magnitude data, blending models, and regenerating the catalog. The...
This federal contract award to Earth And Space Research (ESR), a nonprofit research institute, is for a project titled "ICESat 2 Science Team Observing and Quantifying Interactions Between Sea Ice, Ice Shelves, Icebergs and the Ocean Around Antarctica Using ICESat 2 Altimetry." The $590,208 grant-funded research project, awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center, will focus on using data from the ICESat-2 satellite to study the interactions between sea ice, ice shelves, icebergs, and...
This is a grant awarded by NASA to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York (RF SUNY) to provide an independent validation of the ATL11 ice sheet elevation change data product for the ICESat-2 satellite mission. The primary objective of the ICESat-2 mission is to monitor elevation changes of the polar ice sheets to quantify their contribution to sea level rise. The $148,393.44 grant does not have a set-aside designation and was awarded on December 1, 2016 with a completion...
This federal contract award to the University of Texas at Austin Applied Research Laboratories (UT Austin ARL) supports a NASA ICE, Cloud and Land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) validation activity. The $409,425.15 grant will leverage past work on the original ICESat mission to conduct independent assessments of the satellite's geolocation and elevation measurement accuracy once the laser altimeter is on-orbit. The work will focus on using ground-based corner cube retro-reflectors and...
This federal contract award, valued at $382,307.00, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado, to analyze data from the Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) mission. The overarching goal is to evaluate ICESat-2's capability to observe and measure changes in the cryosphere, such as glacial acceleration and melt processes, which are critical to understanding...
This is a $75,167.00 grant awarded by NASA to the University of Colorado for research to collaborate with the ICESat-2 project at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. The objective is to assess and improve the quality of ICESat-2 atmospheric data products during the early operational phase of the mission. The research will focus on streamlining quality assurance, data quality improvement, and information exchange between the University of Colorado team, the ICESat-2 science team, and the ICESat-2...
