About this award

Momentus Space LLC was awarded a $395,798 firm fixed-price delivery order by NASA's Armstrong Flight Research Center for the development of Generation 1 solar sail mission concepts aligned with the T0412 Gen1 Solar Sail Demonstration Manifest Requirements Document. This task order falls under Momentus' existing $45 million Suborbital/Hosted Orbital Flight and Payload Integration Services 4 Indefinite Delivery Vehicle contract with Armstrong, which enables technology demonstrations across various orbital environments. The work will be performed at Momentus' San Jose, California facility with completion targeted for March 13, 2026. No small business set-aside designation was applied to this competitive procurement.

Solar sail technology represents an innovative propulsion approach for future space missions, utilizing solar radiation pressure as a propellant-free means of spacecraft maneuvering and station-keeping. As a leading provider of advanced space technologies to NASA and the Department of Defense, Momentus brings substantial expertise in orbital service vehicles and technology demonstration missions to this mission concept development effort. The contractor's work will support NASA's broader exploration objectives by maturing solar sail capabilities for potential future implementation within the agency's mission architecture.
