About this award

This federal contract award, identified as 80NSSC20K1577, was granted to The Pennsylvania State University (Penn State) by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The award, valued at $78,875.11, is a grant for research to continue a previously successful guest investigator (GI) program using the Swift satellite to search for X-ray and UV/optical counterparts of unassociated Fermi gamma-ray sources. The award does not have a set-aside designation and is expected to be completed by March 30, 2023. Penn State, a public research university and 1862 land-grant institution, has extensive experience as a prime contractor, subcontractor, and grant recipient across various federal agencies, including the Departments of Defense, Energy, Agriculture, Interior, and Health and Human Services. The university leverages its materials science expertise to support DARPA's mission through an indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract to provide large area electronic device-quality diamond substrates.
