About this award

NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center Science and Technology Office awarded a $2.62 million research grant to Georgia Tech Research Corporation to advance green propulsion systems for CubeSats and small satellites. The grant, awarded on April 6, 2021, with a completion date of September 30, 2026, supports the development and demonstration of low-toxicity, high-performance propulsion technologies aligned with NASA's Green Propulsion Roadmap and Small Spacecraft Technologies Roadmap. This effort leverages small satellites as platforms for technology demonstration to address NASA's small satellite mission requirements. The award was made through open competition with no set-aside designation and is structured as a research grant rather than a traditional contract vehicle.

Georgia Tech Research Corporation, operating through its Office of Sponsored Programs, will perform the work at its Atlanta, Georgia facility. As a non-profit research organization and state institution of higher education, Georgia Tech Research Corporation maintains extensive experience executing federally funded research and development programs across multiple scientific and engineering disciplines for agencies including NASA, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, and the Department of Defense. This award represents the organization's continued role in delivering advanced research and technical services supporting national technology development objectives and agency mission requirements.

Description

NASA msfc s science and technology office (STO) is invested in the infusion and advancement of green (low toxicity), high-performance propulsion systems for cubesat and smallsats. STO is particularly interested in leveraging smallsat and cubesats as platforms for demonstrating new technologies, and to serve NASA s small satellite mission needs. This technology aligns with the NASA green propulsion roadmap, and the NASA small spacecraft technologies roadmap.
