About the company
Alpha Space Test And Research Alliance, LLC is a woman-owned and minority-owned small business subsidiary of Aegis Aerospace Inc., headquartered in Webster, Texas. The company specializes in advanced aerospace engineering and space research services, with a core focus on supporting NASA's human space exploration objectives through innovative research platforms, materials science evaluations, and in-space technology demonstrations. Alpha Space provides comprehensive mission integration, experimental support, and operational services for space-based research initiatives, positioning itself as a key partner in NASA's materials science research and technology development programs in low Earth orbit and beyond.
Alpha Space has demonstrated extensive expertise through multiple federal contract awards spanning materials science research, in-space manufacturing, and lunar surface technology development. The company's primary work has been conducted under delivery orders issued by NASA's Johnson Space Center for the Materials ISS Experiments Flight Facility (MISSE-FF) program, through which Alpha Space has provided integration, manifesting, launch, on-orbit operations, and return support for materials science experiments aboard the International Space Station. Specific delivery order projects have included in-space assembly of solar cells ($9.9 million), spectral characterization of novel spacecraft materials ($275,200), in-space manufacturing support ($27,428), high strain composite spiral wrapped antenna technology integration ($52,000), AFRL VIV2 investigation operations ($127,500), and various other materials science experiments such as the Passive Thermal Switch Avionics Simulator (PATHS) ($92,596), polymer and composite thin films testing ($44,840), and near-infrared spectrum flight experiment support ($15,225). More recently, Alpha Space has received delivery orders for the ASTRID thermal control investigation ($159,129) and the Alpha Space 2 MISSE Amplified project ($197,420), both awarded in 2025. Additionally, NASA's Langley Research Center awarded Alpha Space a $22.1 million definitive contract for development of a Space Science and Technology Evaluation Facility First Flight, a general-purpose lunar testbed providing power and data services to experiments and payloads for testing at the lunar surface. All of these awards have been firm fixed-price contracts with no set-aside designations, indicating the contractor competed effectively in open procurements.
Alpha Space currently holds a single-award indefinite delivery contract with NASA Johnson Space Center valued at $9.9 million with an ultimate completion date of August 11, 2026. This contract provides the foundational vehicle for comprehensive integration, manifesting, launch, on-orbit operations, and return support for materials science experiments and technology demonstrations through the Materials ISS Experiments Flight Facility (MISSE-FF) program aboard the International Space Station. The indefinite delivery contract has been extraordinarily productive, generating numerous task orders since its award in August 2021, with recent delivery orders issued as recently as December 2025 for mission integration and operations services supporting the ASTRID investigation. The contract serves as the underlying vehicle supporting Alpha Space's extensive work with NASA Johnson Space Center in advancing materials science research capabilities and in-space manufacturing technologies. Beyond this primary IDV, Alpha Space's $22.1 million definitive contract with NASA Langley Research Center for lunar testbed development represents the company's expansion into surface-based space infrastructure, demonstrating its growing role in supporting NASA's broader human space exploration initiatives beyond low Earth orbit operations.
