This federal contract award, valued at $651,979.00, was granted by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Davis (UC Davis) to conduct research on the use of artificial gravity as a countermeasure against the detrimental effects of spaceflight on physiology and behavior. The research program seeks to elucidate the dose-response relationship for an artificial gravity exposure countermeasure using a mouse model and a...
This federal contract award to The Regents of the University of Colorado, a U.S. state government higher education institution, aims to develop and assess the feasibility of a conceptual design and architecture for intermittent artificial gravity (AG) as a countermeasure for spaceflight-induced physiological deconditioning. The $290,291.88 training grant, awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), will involve a systematic series of investigations and design...
This federal contract award, with ID NNX16AL36G, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Inc. (BIDMC), a non-profit academic medical center in Boston, MA. The $1,066,991.00 grant funds a research study on the musculoskeletal response of rats exposed to varying levels of partial gravity, from 0.2G to 0.7G, to better understand the impact on muscle atrophy and bone loss. This research aims to inform the development of...
This is a $392,133.11 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Florida (UF) to investigate whether 30 minutes of artificial gravity per day, delivered either continuously or in six, five-minute intermittent blocks, can mitigate changes that occur in a spaceflight analog environment. The grant, which is not set aside, will fund a 60-day head-down tilt bed rest study to assess the effectiveness of the artificial gravity countermeasure on...
This $551,118 federal grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Baylor College of Medicine to monitor the physiological and anatomical effects of two different regimens of intermittent centrifugation-induced artificial gravity, with a focus on the brain, eye, and vestibular system responses. The specific aims are to evaluate the cerebral physiological effects of artificial gravity during a 60-day bed rest period and assess the acute dynamic changes in the...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $124,999.00 Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program Phase I contract to G-Space Inc., a woman-owned small business, for the project "ATOM - AN AI ENVIRONMENT FOR NEW MICROGRAVITY MATERIALS DEVELOPMENT." The contract is a firm-fixed-price definitive contract designated for 100% small business participation. G-Space Inc. provides gravity-free design and testing services to support long-duration space...
This is a $200,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to G-Space Inc., a woman-owned small business, for the development of a computer vision-based toolbox for feature extraction, analysis, modeling, and prediction of microgravity data sets. The project, titled "EO14042 DEVELOPMENT OF A COMPUTER VISION BASED TOOLBOX FOR FEATURE EXTRACTION, ANALYSIS, MODELING AND PREDICTION OF MICROGRAVITY DATA SETS," aims to enable the prediction of materials...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $579,723 grant to the Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania (Penn) on April 10, 2018 to conduct research on the effects of artificial gravity on neuroplasticity and behavioral health during long-duration spaceflight. The overarching goal is to quantify the impact of different intermittent artificial gravity protocols on cortical neuroplasticity, neural control of the cardiovascular system, and spatial cognition during 60-day...
This federal contract award, valued at $449,827.46, was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Johnson Space Center to Redwire Space Technologies, Inc., a for-profit prime contractor. The contract is for the "Investigation of ISS Adipose Tissue Mechanosensing in True Microgravity" and was awarded under NASA's Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program Phase III. The award does not have a set-aside designation. Redwire Space Technologies, Inc. is a key...
This SBIR Phase I contract was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to ATA Engineering, Inc., a small business, for the development and testing of a prototype portable and adaptable gravity offloading system. The goal is to improve upon existing equipment used for ground testing and qualification of large, lightweight, deployable solar array structures, which are a key enabling technology for NASA. The proposed system aims to overcome...
