About this award

This federal contract award is a grant for research valued at $823,086 to The Regents of the University of Colorado (CU) from a civilian federal agency, the Shared Services Center. The purpose of the grant is to assess the benefits of providing astronauts with earth-fixed external visual references and enabling active postural control to increase head and torso stability during capsule water landings, in a series of ground-based laboratory experiments. This research aims to mitigate astronaut motion sickness during these water landings. The award does not have a set-aside designation. CU is a prominent public research university in Colorado that frequently secures federal contract and grant awards across scientific and technological domains, collaborating with prime contractors like MIT and UCAR. The university holds a $15 million Indefinite Delivery Contract with NASA's Johnson Space Center to provide specialized research platforms and mission support for life science research in low Earth orbit, demonstrating its extensive expertise in space-related research.
