AI Contract Overview
NASA Langley Research Center has awarded a firm-fixed price contract to Astrobotic Technology, Inc. for the development of Lunar Vertical Solar Array Technology. This project, stemming from a competitive selection under the Space Technology Research, Development, Demonstration, and Infusion 2020 announcement, aims to create solar arrays essential for a sustained lunar surface presence by 2028. The primary objective is to design, prototype, and test a robotically deployable solar panel system capable of providing 10 kilowatts of electrical power at the lunar south pole. The scope of work is divided into a base period and an option period. During the base period, Astrobotic Technology will conduct the necessary design and analyses to demonstrate expected performance. If the option period is exercised, the company will fabricate and test a prototype to achieve a Technical Readiness Level of 6 and prove the system is qualified for space applications. To maximize sunlight capture and minimize shadowing at the south pole, the development will explore the use of vertical arrays on masts reaching up to 10 meters in length.
