About the company
Liberty Science Center, Inc., a nonprofit science education institution based in Jersey City, New Jersey, operates as a federal grant recipient delivering hands-on STEM learning programs and workforce development initiatives to civilian agencies without pursuing federal contracts as a prime or subcontractor. The organization works exclusively in the education and science engagement space, competing on a full-and-open basis with no set-aside designations.
Liberty Science Center's recent federal portfolio centers on NASA STEM engagement, K–12 science instruction, and workforce development. The center serves as prime recipient on five named grants across the past four years: a $249.475 thousand cooperative agreement with NASA's Office of STEM Engagement (CFDA 43.008, awarded October 2025, performance through September 2027) to deliver the NASA Afterschool Engagement initiative, which attracts students to STEM through hands-on learning aligned with NASA's strategic plan; a $559 thousand project grant from the Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (CFDA 84.215, awarded June 2026, performance through June 2030) to leverage portable planetariums for STEM engagement in high-need communities; a $24.777 thousand NASA grant (awarded July 2022, completed June 2024) supporting the NASA Nights at Liberty Science Center after-hours engagement program; and a project grant from the Economic Development Administration (awarded November 2023, completed October 2025) supporting the High Schools of the Future pilot program, which provides workforce development and job placement for students from low-income New Jersey neighborhoods into STEM careers through partnerships including Bank of America.
Customer concentration is moderate. NASA-affiliated entities dominate by volume — the NASA Shared Services Center and subsidiary space centers account for five awards totaling $274 thousand in combined potential value — while NASA Goddard Space Center anchors the largest single award at $845 thousand. The National Science Foundation represents three awards and the Department of Army two awards in the recent pipeline; the Economic Development Administration and broader NASA organization round out the active customer set. Eight distinct federal agencies have funded Liberty Science Center work over the source period.
Activity remains episodic. The organization received two awards in 2025 and one in 2026, following a two-year gap; the longer history shows two awards in 2022 after an interval from 2010. Two awards face ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, carrying combined potential value of $249 thousand and representing recompete opportunity. Liberty Science Center has not worked as a subcontractor to other federal primes and does not hold parent contract vehicles such as GWACs or IDIQs. The organization's federal footprint is grant-recipient focused, with all sixteen awards in the source representing direct federal grants or cooperative agreements, and no contract work as prime or sub.
