About this award

This federal contract award to the Smithsonian Institution's Astrophysical Observatory (SAO) has a total ceiling value of $1,466,244.00. The goal of the project is to advance the development of the HITRAN molecular spectroscopic database and associated software, in support of NASA's missions focused on characterizing the Earth's atmosphere using spectroscopic techniques. The contract, awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center, is a grant for research and does not have a set-aside designation. As a trust instrumentality of the United States, the Smithsonian Institution conducts extensive research and development efforts for federal agencies, frequently collaborating with universities on NASA and National Science Foundation (NSF) projects as both a prime contractor and subcontractor. Through this award, the SAO will leverage its expertise in areas such as astrophysics, solar physics, exoplanets, and planetary atmospheres to enhance the HITRAN database, which is critical for various NASA Earth observation missions.

Description

The goal of this project is to advance the development of the hitran molecular spectroscopic database compilation and associated software to support nasas missions that seek to characterize the terrestrial atmosphere using spectroscopic techniques.
