STROFIO is an investigation selected for direct Phase B entry to exploit a unique opportunity for NASA participation in the BepiColombo mission to Mercury. The investigation will characterize Mercury's tenuous exosphere and its interaction with the magnetosphere and surface, providing observations complementary to data collected by Mariner, MESSENGER, and other BepiColombo instruments. Dr. Stefano Livi serves as principal investigator.

Place of performance is San Antonio, Texas. The contract runs on a cost-plus-fixed-fee basis with an ultimate completion date of April 30, 2028. No set-aside category applies.
