About this award
The U.S. government awarded a $80,732 research grant to Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station (TEES) for the development of automated patterning technology for customized Extravehicular Activity (EVA) spacesuit pressure garment arm assemblies. Awarded on August 1, 2023, with completion targeted for February 26, 2025, this civilian research effort represents a non-set-aside award made through full and open competition. The work is being performed in College Station, Texas, and falls under the Shared Services Center as the funding federal agency. TEES, a state government research institution within the Texas A&M University System, brings substantial expertise in advanced engineering and scientific research to this project, which directly supports NASA's mission to develop improved spacesuit technologies for extravehicular operations.
This grant award aligns with TEES' established track record of delivering innovative research and development services across multiple federal agencies, including NASA, the Department of Defense, and the Department of Energy. The organization's multidisciplinary capabilities in materials science, digital modeling, and advanced manufacturing processes position it well to advance the automated patterning and customization technologies required for next-generation EVA pressure garment systems. The research output from this effort is anticipated to enhance the efficiency and precision of spacesuit production while improving comfort and functionality for astronauts conducting extravehicular activities.
