- This federal contract award extends previous work performed by the principal investigator (PI) under three prior grants (NNX15AV50G, NNX17AJ46G, and 80NSSC18K0637) to upgrade a CubeSat database and improve data collection processes. The $450,000.00 grant was awarded on June 11, 2020 to Saint Louis University, a private Jesuit research university located in St. Louis, Missouri. The work is intended to address questions of mission success and failure among CubeSats. The grant has an ultimate...
- This is a single-source, $150,000.00 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian U.S. government agency, to Saint Louis University (SLU), a private non-profit university, for a "SINGLE-SOURCE, SMALLSAT MISSION ASSURANCE: DATABASE, MODELS AND LESSONS LEARNED" project. The grant, which has an ultimate completion date of March 21, 2027, does not have a set-aside designation. SLU, which has demonstrated significant capabilities in delivering advanced research and development...
- This is a $806,476 research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to Carr Astronautics Corp, a for-profit subchapter S corporation, to demonstrate higher-level onboard science data processing capabilities for small satellites and CubeSats. The goal is to enable future Earth science missions and Earth observing constellations by resolving data downlink bottlenecks that can limit the volume of data delivered to ground-based science...
- This $194,572.93 award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center was granted to the University of Colorado to develop technologies for the entry, descent, and landing (EDL) of CubeSat-sized vehicles. The research aims to address the difficulties with scalability of existing EDL technologies, and explore the use of passive landing systems that may be more feasible for smaller payloads. The objective is to enable more affordable access to scientific and...
- This is a $165,000.00 training grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado, to develop a one-way radiometric tracking system for navigating CubeSats in deep space and future Mars and lunar missions. The project aims to validate the use of low size, weight, and power chip scale atomic clocks (CSACs) to improve the capacity of NASA's Deep Space Network to support these...
- This federal contract award, valued at $85,983.90, was granted by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park. The award is for a research grant to evaluate the feasibility of mapping small (micron to sub-centimeter scale) orbital debris in low-Earth orbit (LEO) using a fleet of CubeSats equipped with sensors to detect the plasma signature of the debris. The goal is to develop a technology that could...
- This is a $100,000.00 Cooperative Agreement awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Montana State University (MSU) to conduct a satellite mission to demonstrate a novel radiation tolerant computer technology. The project involves deploying a 3U small satellite from the International Space Station (ISS) using the NanoRacks CubeSat Deployer (NRCSD) to operate the computer technology in low Earth orbit for 12 months. This mission is intended to increase the...
- This is a Cooperative Agreement awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Washington for the HuskySat-I project, a 3U CubeSat with plasma propulsion and high-gain telemetry for low-Earth orbit. The goal is to develop a CubeSat system enabling more extensive mapping of solar system objects, including lunar magnetic anomalies, as a precursor to a 6U CubeSat for lunar orbital insertion. The $199,757.04 award supports an...
- This is a $50,000.00 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian federal agency, to the International Space University Organization, Inc., a non-profit organization, for "THE LUNAR UNIVERSITY ISU TEAM PROJECT." The grant has an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2024. The organization specializes in space-related research and educational programs, particularly focusing on lunar and Mars exploration capabilities. This grant appears to be part of the organization's...
- This federal contract award, valued at $199,649.70, was granted to Sonoma State University (SSU) by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) under the EDGECUBE project. EDGECUBE is a 1U CubeSat designed to monitor the red edge characteristics of 300 km areas of the Earth using five narrow spectral bands. The project is a partnership between SSU, Santa Clara University, and Morehead State University, with additional support from the California Space Grant Consortium. The...
