This federal contract award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was granted to Space Lab Technologies, LLC, a Colorado-based small minority-owned business that develops advanced technologies for sustainable human space exploration. The $133,000 grant supports the "G-LILYPOND: Floating Plant Pond for Microgravity" project, which investigates the use of duckweed (water lentils) as a promising supplemental food crop for long-duration space missions. The research aims to assess the nutritional and growth potential of this highly edible, fast-growing hydrophyte for regenerative life support systems that recover nutrients and close the carbon loop on spacecraft. This Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Phase I effort aligns with NASA's technology roadmap for self-sufficient life support systems crucial to future deep space exploration. The contract does not have a set-aside designation.
