This federal contract award, NNX16AM40H, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Purdue University, a research institution in West Lafayette, Indiana. The $290,744.44 award will fund a research investigation into low-thrust propulsion technologies, such as electric propulsion and solar sailing, which could enable smaller and more efficient spacecraft for space science and exploration missions. The research aims to develop improved trajectory design methods that...
This federal contract award to Purdue University, a non-profit educational institution, is focused on developing methodologies to enable human presence and transportation in cislunar space - the region between the Earth and Moon. The research aims to provide NASA with trajectory design approaches, targeting methods, and mission planning tools to support missions like the Deep Space Gateway (DSG) and Deep Space Transport (DST). This work is critical for expanding human activity beyond low-Earth...
This federal contract award to Purdue University, a research institution located in West Lafayette, Indiana, supports further understanding and characterization of high-speed flow dynamics in transonic to hypersonic regimes. This research is important for the development, testing, and improvement of complex rocket and space vehicles. The contract, valued at $246,500.65, is a grant for research with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Shared Services Center. The award...
This federal contract award to Purdue University, a non-profit educational institution, is for the development of rocket engines capable of deep throttling, defined as being able to operate at less than 25% of their maximum thrust. This represents a dynamic range of 4:1 or better, which is extremely valuable for precision maneuvers requiring substantial delta-V. The award, contract number 80NSSC19K1161, has a ceiling value of $311,367.00 and an ultimate completion date of July 31, 2023. The...
This federal contract award to Purdue University supports research and development focused on enabling the use of a near rectilinear halo orbit (NRHO) as a baseline trajectory for NASA's Lunar Orbital Platform-Gateway concept. The $738,822.02 cooperative agreement provides funding for spacecraft navigation, targeting, and guidance capabilities required to access various orbits and trajectories in the Earth-Moon system. This effort supports the expansion of human activities into cislunar space by...
This federal contract award, valued at $872,707.00, was issued by the Shared Services Center (an alternate name for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration or NASA) to Purdue University, a non-profit educational institution. The contract requires Purdue to execute a balanced science program based on guidance from the National Academies, administration priorities, and direction from Congress. This includes participating as a key partner in NASA's exploration initiative, focusing on...
