About this award
This federal contract award, with the ID NNA17BF53C|80ARC018F0042, was issued by the Ames Research Center, a civilian agency, to the Universities Space Research Association (USRA), a nonprofit research organization. The $17,091.00 cost-plus-fixed-fee contract does not have a set-aside designation.
The contract requires USRA to support the Dryden Science Instrument (DSI) staff in upgrading the FIFI-LS (Far-Infrared Field-Imaging Line-Spectrometer) filters. The goal is to improve the transmission of the FIFI-LS 52 micron fine-structure line by 77-98% and the overall blue channel 50-70 micron region by 5-50%. This work supports the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) program, one of NASA's major science missions.
USRA has extensive experience providing engineering, scientific research, and program management support to NASA and other federal agencies through contracts and grants. As both a prime contractor and subrecipient, the organization leverages its expertise in areas like quantum computing and Earth science to advance research priorities across multiple disciplines.
