About this award

This federal contract award, valued at $258,816.13, was granted by NASA to the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO), a division of the Smithsonian Institution, to provide updated calibrations and technical expertise for the Faraday Cup (FC) solar wind ion instrument on the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) spacecraft. The work will include laboratory experiments to diagnose observed FC anomalies. This award is part of the DSCOVR Faraday Cup Mission Calibration and Data Support program and is not associated with any set-aside designations. The Smithsonian Institution is a leading provider of scientific research, instrumentation development, and data system services to federal agencies, primarily NASA and the National Science Foundation, and frequently collaborates with universities on such projects.

Description

The purpose of this proposal is for scientists at the smithsonian astrophysical observatory (SAO) to provide updated calibrations and technical expertise to the NASA goddard spaceflight center (gsfc) and to the national oceanic and atmospheric administration (NOAA), in support of mission operations and data analysis for the faraday cup (FC) solar wind ION instrument on the deep space climate observatory (dscovr) spacecraft. This proposed work will also include laboratory experiments designed to diagnose observed FC anomalies.
