About this award

This $125,000.00 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was made to The Aerospace Corporation, a non-profit federally funded research and development center (FFRDC). The award is for the "Atomic Planar Power for Lightweight Exploration (APPLE)" project, which will explore an alternative vehicle architecture that integrates a long-lived, peak power source to enable deep solar system missions on low-mass, fast transit space platforms. The Aerospace Corporation is the prime contractor, and there is no set-aside designation for this award. This grant supports NASA's strategic science and exploration goals by advancing space technology development and scientific understanding. The Aerospace Corporation also holds two key indefinite delivery contracts with NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) that facilitate the company's role as an independent advisor to major civil and defense space agencies.
