About this award
NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center issued a $42.8 million delivery order to The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory LLC on March 4, 2024, under the ARDES II vehicle for Cross-Scale Investigation of Earth's Magnetotail and Aurora (CINEMA) mission support, with ultimate completion March 31, 2027.
ARDES II is NASA Marshall's cost-plus-fixed-fee vehicle for mission-critical research and systems engineering across space science and exploration programs. Place of performance is Laurel, Maryland.
The delivery order funds integrated mission support including spacecraft systems engineering, hardware design and fabrication, scientific instrumentation, and launch operations for the CINEMA mission. APL is performing the prime systems integration role with subcontractors including Stellar Exploration Inc. (propulsion-unit design and fabrication), Exolaunch, Inc. (rideshare launch services), Raytheon Company's Land & Air Defense Systems Division (electronic assemblies and spacecraft components), Southwest Research Institute (hardware development and testing), Photonis Scientific Inc. (microchannel plate detectors), and Blue Canyon Technologies LLC (spacecraft bus and satellite component engineering).
Service Contract Inventory reporting shows FY2024 invoiced activity of $1.3 million across 2.9 FTEs and 6,009 contractor hours at a derived rate of $217.90 per hour. FY2025 SCI reporting reflects $89 thousand invoiced with 0.0 FTEs. APL self-performed all reported hours in both fiscal years with no subcontractor labor reported under SCI.
