This is a firm fixed-price purchase order awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to G.a. Tyler Associates, Inc. (doing business as The Optical Science Company), a small business located in Santa Ana, California. The contract, valued at $124,966.00, is for the development of a long-range laser communications system for spacecraft in the solar system. The effort involves two components: (1) a spacecraft-based transceiver using small size, weight, and power (SWAP) components to generate signals detectable from Earth, and (2) a ground-based transceiver system using laser guide star adaptive optics and linear mode photon counting avalanche photo-diode detectors to sense the incoming laser communications signals. The Optical Science Company has prior experience in laser communications technology and adaptive optics systems, while Raytheon Vision Systems will provide its expertise in advanced sensors and photon counting technology. This contract is part of NASA's broader laser communications program and is set aside for small businesses.
