The contract pertains to the Undergraduate Student Instrument Project (USIP) 2015, a NASA initiative under the Science Mission Directorate and Office of Education's National Space Grant College and Fellowship Program. It invites proposals from U.S. institutions of higher education to create undergraduate-led project teams tasked with designing and flying science or technology payloads on suborbital-class platforms. These platforms include sounding rockets, balloons, aircraft, suborbital reusable launch vehicles, and CubeSats launched on orbital vehicles, all aligned with NASA's strategic goals and objectives. This specific modification, labeled Amendment 1, revises the timeline for submission by extending the deadline for mandatory Notices of Intent to October 15, 2015, while maintaining the original proposal due date of November 20, 2015. The amendment was posted around September 22, 2015, and provides additional clarity to applicants regarding the submission process. The solicitation continues to seek innovative projects that provide undergraduate students with hands-on experience in aerospace research and development through this cooperative agreement opportunity.
