About this award

This federal contract award, identified as 80NSSC20K1429, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), a non-profit research and development organization based in San Antonio, Texas. The $599,848.00 grant is for a research project to study the hydration of lunar regolith near Apollo landing sites, using data from the Lyman Alpha Mapping Project (LAMP) instrument onboard the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO). The project aims to better understand the constraints on lunar regolith hydration as observed by the LAMP instrument. This award is not set aside and represents one of SwRI's many prime federal contract and grant awards across defense, civilian, and scientific research agencies, including the Department of Defense, Department of Energy, and National Science Foundation. SwRI's diverse technical capabilities and experience as a federal contractor have enabled the organization to secure various indefinite delivery vehicles (IDVs) with agencies such as the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
