The federal contract award with ID 80NSSC19K0641 was granted by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the Universities Space Research Association (USRA), a nonprofit research organization, for a grant to support scientific research. The contract, which does not have a set-aside designation, has a ceiling value of $155,000.00 and a period of performance from March 13, 2019 to March 12, 2026. The work under this grant involves studying the diversity and origins of irregular mare patches on the Moon, with a focus on mapping and compositional analysis. The contract was modified to reduce the period of performance from 3 years to 2 years and the funding level, leading to the descoping of certain tasks. However, the core science objectives remain unchanged, and USRA will continue to collaborate with researchers from the U.S. Geological Survey. This award is likely associated with NASA's Science Mission Directorate, as USRA has extensive experience supporting the agency's space science and exploration programs.
