About this award
Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, Inc. received a $1.57M research grant from a civilian federal agency's Shared Services Center to develop and test a miniaturized double Langmuir probe for small satellite platforms. The grant, awarded on March 1, 2023, with an ultimate completion date of September 20, 2028, will be performed at the university's Daytona Beach, Florida campus. This contract represents a non-set-aside, full and open competition award with no identified subcontractors.
The miniaturized Langmuir probe development aligns with Embry-Riddle's established expertise in advanced sensor technology for space applications and satellite instrumentation, areas in which the university has previously performed research for NASA and the Department of Defense. Langmuir probes are critical diagnostic instruments used to measure plasma characteristics in space environments, and miniaturization is essential for integration into small satellite platforms with constrained payload capacity. This research effort supports the broader national objective of advancing space science capabilities through next-generation sensor technologies suitable for CubeSats and other small satellite missions.
