The National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Johnson Space Center is forecasting the procurement of a next generation NanoSIMS HR instrument with cryogenic capability. This project aims to upgrade existing capabilities at NASA JSC by providing unparalleled spatial resolution, precision, and accuracy for the isotopic characterization of fine-grained constituents. The instrument will be utilized to analyze Ryugu samples and future materials returned by the Artemis and other space missions, specifically targeting soluble organics and fluid inclusions. This technological advancement is expected to revolutionize the scientific understanding of the early solar system, the first formed solids, and the volatile content of primitive asteroids. The contract is designated as a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 927110, with a posted forecast date of July 1, 2027.

Full Description

Show more
It will allow new types of analyses to be made, such as isotopic study of soluble organics and fluid inclusions, and extend our measurements to finer grains that are currently inaccessible. The advanced capabilities of the NanoSIMS HR will likely enable the discovery of new types of presolar and nebular grains. Such studies of Ryugu samples, as well as future return samples, using the NanoSIMS HR would revolutionize our understanding of the material that seeded our solar system, the first formed solar system solids, and the organic and volatile content of primitive asteroids.
To prepare for the analyses of samples being returned by Artemis and other missions. The improvements over the existing NanoSIMS 50L at NASA JSC will enable isotopic characterization of the fine-grained constituents at unparalleled spatial resolution, precision, and accuracy.
