About this award
The California Institute of Technology's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) received a delivery order contract valued at $271.3 million from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory for the SPHEREX (Spectro-Photometer for the History of the Universe, Epoch of Reionization, and Ices Explorer) all-sky spectral survey mission. Under a cost-plus-fixed-fee arrangement with an ultimate completion date of April 30, 2028, JPL will conduct this astronomical survey mission with work performed in Pasadena, California. The contract contains no set-aside designation, reflecting the award's basis on JPL's demonstrated technical merit and specialized capabilities in space science and mission systems engineering.
SPHEREX represents a major astrophysics initiative aimed at conducting a comprehensive spectral survey of the entire celestial sphere. JPL's role encompasses spacecraft systems development, advanced sensor and instrumentation design, mission operations support, and data processing infrastructure. As a federally funded research and development center specializing in space exploration and scientific research, JPL leverages its extensive expertise in spacecraft systems engineering and advanced technology development to execute this complex space mission for NASA, further cementing the laboratory's position as a critical partner in the agency's space science portfolio.
