The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) John F. Kennedy Space Center (KSC) has issued Request for Information RFI-KSC-ResearchCollaboration-2026 to identify potential research and technology partnership opportunities with U.S. Federal, State, and Commercial entities. This initiative aims to expand KSC's innovation ecosystem in support of the Artemis Mission by collaborating with partners whose technical expertise complements existing capabilities. The RFI focuses on seven priority areas: Crop Production and Management, Dust Mitigation, In-Situ Resource Utilization (ISRU), In-Space and Surface Systems, Ground Systems, Scientific Instruments for Exploration, and Waste Management and Logistics Reduction. This solicitation is strictly for planning purposes to gauge market interest and does not constitute a request for proposals or a commitment by the government to enter into a contract.
