About this award

This federal contract award, valued at $148,404.34, was granted to the Trustees of the Colorado School of Mines, doing business as Colorado School of Mines, a public research university. The contract was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to support research into locating and determining the existence of lunar volatiles in the Moon's permanently shadowed regions (PSRs). This research is critical to developing future lunar volatile mining efforts. The contract is a grant for research and does not have a set-aside designation. Colorado School of Mines frequently partners with federal agencies, national laboratories, and other research institutions on projects spanning basic and applied research across disciplines such as materials science, geosciences, energy technologies, and engineering. The school also holds an indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to advance the understanding of ferroelectric properties in nitride semiconductor materials, which may have applications in defense and intelligence.
