About this award
The Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), a federally funded research and development center operated by the California Institute of Technology, received a delivery order contract valued at $1.16 million to support JPL participation in the Wide-field Imager for Solar Probe (WISPR) instrument for the Solar Probe Plus mission. Awarded on October 1, 2018, with an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2026, this cost-plus-fixed-fee contract is funded by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory and will be performed in Pasadena, California. The contract carries no set-aside designation, reflecting JPL's selection based on technical merit and demonstrated capabilities in spacecraft instrumentation and solar science missions. WISPR is a critical imaging instrument designed to observe the solar corona and solar wind during NASA's Solar Probe Plus mission, which aims to study the sun's outer atmosphere and advance understanding of solar physics phenomena.
This delivery order represents JPL's continued role as a primary systems integrator and technical partner for complex NASA space science initiatives. JPL's extensive expertise in sensor design, scientific instrumentation, spacecraft systems engineering, and mission operations directly supports the development and integration of advanced imaging capabilities for heliophysics research. The contract aligns with NASA's broader strategic objectives in solar science and space weather research, leveraging JPL's proven track record in delivering cutting-edge instrumentation for major space exploration missions across planetary science, earth observation, and astrophysics domains.
