About this award

NASA's Shared Services Center awarded a $167.6K research grant to Muon Space Inc., a Mountain View-based commercial satellite remote sensing company, to contribute space-based wildfire remote sensing and instrument development expertise with a stakeholder focus. The grant, which commenced on June 21, 2024, and concludes on June 20, 2027, supports the company's efforts to advance earth science capabilities in wildfire detection and monitoring through satellite-based technologies. This award reflects NASA's investment in innovative approaches to environmental monitoring and disaster risk assessment, leveraging Muon Space Inc.'s demonstrated expertise in electro-optical/infrared (EO/IR) instrument development and multi-modal satellite remote sensing systems.

The grant is part of Muon Space Inc.'s broader portfolio of research collaborations with federal agencies focused on extracting actionable scientific insights from satellite data. The company has previously received complementary NASA grants totaling approximately $427K for related initiatives, including projects incorporating CYGNSS satellite soil moisture data into wildfire risk prediction systems and investigations into novel applications of GNSS reflection observations. No set-aside designation was applied to this award, and the research will be performed at the company's Mountain View headquarters, positioning the work within NASA's broader earth science and climate monitoring objectives.
