This is a Small Business Set-Aside contract awarded by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Mesa Photonics LLC, a small business based in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The $124,950 firm-fixed-price contract is for the development of a spacesuit gas sensor based on Mesa Photonics' Enhanced Raman Gas Sensor (ERGS) technology.

The goal is to create a moisture-tolerant, drop-in replacement for the current carbon dioxide sensor used in spacesuits. The ERGS technology can directly report gas partial pressures for carbon dioxide, methane, oxygen, and nitrogen, and can operate in pure oxygen environments. Preliminary testing has demonstrated detection sensitivities in the range of 300 to 1,500 parts per million for these gases. This Phase I Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) contract is part of NASA's Compact Raman Air Sensor program, which aims to develop advanced gas sensing capabilities for spacesuit applications.
