| THE CAPABILITY TO GROW NUTRITIOUS, PALATABLE FOOD FOR CREW CONSUMPTION DURING SPACEFLIGHT HAS THE POTENTIAL TO PROVIDE HEALTH PROMOTING, BIOAVAILABLE NUTRIENTS, ENHANCE THE DIETARY EXPERIENCE, AND REDUCE LAUNCH MASS AS WE MOVE TOWARD LONGER-DURATION MISSIONS. HOWEVER, STUDIES OF EDIBLE PRODUCE DURING SPACEFLIGHT HAVE BEEN LIMITED, LEAVING A SIGNIFICANT KNOWLEDGE GAP IN THE METHODS REQUIRED TO GROW SAFE, ACCEPTABLE, NUTRITIOUS CROPS FOR CONSUMPTION IN MICROGRAVITY. THE VEGGIE VEGETABLE-PRODUCTION SYSTEM ON THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION (ISS) OFFERS AN OPPORTUNITY TO DEVELOP A PICK-AND-EAT FRESH VEGETABLE COMPONENT TO THE ISS FOOD SYSTEM AS A FIRST STEP TO BIOREGENERATIVE SUPPLEMENTAL FOOD PRODUCTION. WE PROPOSE GROWING SALAD PLANTS IN THE VEGGIE UNIT DURING SPACEFLIGHT, FOCUSING ON THE IMPACT OF LIGHT QUALITY AND FERTILIZER FORMULATION ON CROP MORPHOLOGY, EDIBLE BIOMASS YIELD, MICROBIAL FOOD SAFETY, ORGANOLEPTIC ACCEPTABILITY, NUTRITIONAL VALUE AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH BENEFITS OF THE FRESH PRODUCE. PHASE A OF THE PROJECT WOULD INVOLVE FLIGHT TESTS USING LEAFY GREENS. PHASE B WOULD FOCUS ON DWARF TOMATO. OUR WORK WILL HELP DEFINE LIGHT COLORS, LEVELS, AND HORTICULTURAL BEST PRACTICES TO ACHIEVE HIGH YIELDS OF SAFE, NUTRITIOUS LEAFY GREENS AND TOMATOES TO SUPPLEMENT A SPACE DIET OF PREPACKAGED FOOD. OUR FINAL DELIVERABLE WILL BE THE DEVELOPMENT OF GROWTH PROTOCOLS FOR THESE CROPS IN A SPACEFLIGHT VEGETABLE PRODUCTION SYSTEM. | SIERRA NEVADA CORPORATION | $111,166 | NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION | NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION | — | — | AR21 | Nov 16, 2017 | Nov 16, 2017 | Aug 31, 2019 | ||

| OTHER FUNCTIONS.COMMERCIAL CREW INTEGRATED CAPABILITY.IN 2009, THE NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION ( NASA ) BEGAN COMMERCIAL CREW INITIATIVES TO STIMULATE THE PRIVATE SECTOR TO DEVELOP AND DEMONSTRATE SYSTEM CONCEPTS AND CAPABILITIES THAT COULD ULTIMATELY LEAD TO THE AVAILABILITY OF HUMAN SPACEFLIGHT SERVICES FOR BOTH COMMERCIAL AND GOVERNMENT CUSTOMERS. THOSE INITIATIVES FOCUSED ON MATURING DESIGNS OF ELEMENTS OF A CREW TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM (CTS). THIS AGREEMENT FOR THE COMMERCIAL CREW INTEGRATED CAPABILITY (CCICAP) BEGINS A NEW INITIATIVE TO FACILITATE INDUSTRY S DEVELOPMENT OF AN INTEGRATED CTS. FACILITATING DEVELOPMENT OF THIS U.S. CAPABILITY WILL PROVIDE NATIONAL ECONOMIC BENEFIT AND SUPPORT SAFE, RELIABLE, AND COST EFFECTIVE TRANSPORTATION TO LOW-EARTH ORBIT (LEO). THE GOALS OF THE CCICAP INVESTMENTS ARE TO ENABLE SIGNIFICANT PROGRESS ON MATURING THE DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF AN INTEGRATED COMMERCIAL SPACE TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM WHILE ENSURING CREW AND PASSENGER SAFETY. THIS SPACE ACT AGREEMENT (THE AGREEMENT OR SAA ) REPRESENTS THE PARTNER S AND NASA S COMMITMENT TO ENCOURAGE INNOVATIONS AND EFFICIENCIES IN CTS DESIGN AND CAPABILITIES TO ACHIEVE THESE CCICAP GOALS. THE PURPOSE OF THIS AGREEMENT IS TO PROVIDE FINANCIAL AND LIMITED TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO THE PARTNER S INTEGRATED CREW TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM (CTS). THE PARTNER WILL RECEIVE PAYMENTS FROM NASA UPON SUCCESSFUL COMPLETION OF AGREED UPON MILESTONES AS DESCRIBED IN APPENDIX 2 OF THIS AGREEMENT. COMMERCIAL CREW INTEGRATED CAPABILITY GOALS IN ORDER TO OPEN UP THE DESIGN TRADE SPACE AND ENCOURAGE INNOVATIONS AND EFFICIENCIES IN SYSTEM DESIGN SOLUTIONS, NASA IS NOT DICTATING A SPECIFIC INTEGRATED CREW TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM DESIGN. EACH PARTICIPANT MUST DETERMINE THE INTEGRATED SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS AND DESIGN THAT BEST SERVES ITS TARGET MARKETS. WHERE THE GOALS BELOW CANNOT BE MET, PARTICIPANTS ARE ENCOURAGED TO PROPOSE ALTERNATIVE OBJECTIVES INCLUDING EXPLANATORY RATIONALE. THE FOLLOWING SECTIONS OUTLINE THE GOALS OF CCICAP. CCICAP STRATEGIC GOALS THE OVERALL CCICAP STRATEGIC GOAL IS TO ADVANCE MULTIPLE INTEGRATED COMMERCIAL CTS CONCEPTS TO THE STAGE OF AN ORBITAL CREWED DEMONSTRATION FLIGHT CAPABILITY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE WHILE ENSURING CREW SAFETY AND CONSIDERING POTENTIAL CUSTOMER STANDARDS. SPECIFICALLY, THE CCICAP STRATEGIC GOALS INCLUDE: 1. ADVANCING MULTIPLE INTEGRATED CTS TO AN ORBITAL CREWED DEMONSTRATION FLIGHT NO LATER THAN THE MIDDLE OF THE DECADE OR AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE. 2. ACHIEVING SIGNIFICANT INDUSTRY FINANCIAL INVESTMENT. 3. ACHIEVING AFFORDABLE DEVELOPMENT COSTS. 4. PROVIDING THE INITIAL CTS CAPABILITY THAT WILL LEAD TO LONG-TERM COST EFFECTIVE ACCESS TO LOW EARTH ORBIT (LEO). 5. DEVELOPING A CAPABILITY TO LEO THAT SUPPORTS COMMERCIAL MARKETS FOR BOTH COMMERCIAL AND GOVERNMENT CUSTOMERS. BASE PERIOD GOALS FOR THE BASE PERIOD, TO BE CONCLUDED NO LATER THAN MAY 31, 2014, NASA S GOALS ARE FOR PARTICIPANTS TO: 1. COMPLETE THE DETAILED INTEGRATED DESIGN OF THE CTS. 2. DEMONSTRATE A PROCESS TO ANALYZE, QUANTIFY, AND UNDERSTAND THE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE DESIGN. 3. ESTABLISH THE CRITERIA AND PLANS FOR THE PARTICIPANTS CERTIFICATION OF THE SYSTEM FOR THE ORBITAL CREWED DEMONSTRATION FLIGHT, WHICH CONSIDERS POTENTIAL CUSTOMER STANDARDS (E.G. NASA S 1100 SERIES, SSP 50808 AND INDUSTRY EQUIVALENTS). 4. CONDUCT SIGNIFICANT RISK REDUCTION ACTIVITIES (FOR EXAMPLE, UNCREWED TEST FLIGHT, PAD ABORT TEST, OR DROP TEST). | SIERRA NEVADA CORPORATION | $227,500,000 | NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION | NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION | — | — | AR17 | Aug 2, 2012 | Aug 2, 2012 | Feb 1, 2023 | ||
| UNDER THIS ANNOUNCEMENT,NASA IS SOLICITING PROPOSALS FROM U.S. SPACE INDUSTRY PARTICIPANTS TO FURTHER ADVANCE COMMERCIAL CREW TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM (CTS) CONCEPTS AND MATURE THE DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF ELEMENTS OF THE SYSTEM SUCH AS LAUNCH VEHICLES AND SPACECRAFT.THE AGREEMENTS ARE EXPECTED TO RESULT IN SIGNIFICANT MATURATION OF COMMERCIAL CTS CAPABILITIES WITH CONSIDERATION GIVEN TO NASA S DRAFT HUMAN CERTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS AND STANDARDS OR INDUSTRY EQUIVALENT TO THOSE REQUIREMENTS AND STANDARDS.THIS ACTIVITY IS REFERRED TO AS COMMERCIAL CREW DEVELOPMENT ROUND 2, OR CCDEV 2. SELECTED CCDEV 2 PARTICIPANTS WILL RECEIVE FUNDED SPACE ACT AGREEMENTS (SAAS) UNDER NASA S OTHER TRANSACTIONS AUTHORITY WITHIN THE NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ACT, 42 U.S.C. 2451 ET SEQ. NASA INTENDS TO SELECT A PORTFOLIO OF MULTIPLE CCDEV 2 SAAS THAT BEST MEET THE CCDEV 2 GOALS AND OBJECTIVES WITHIN THE AVAILABLE FUNDING. PAYMENTS WILL BE MADE UPON THE SUCCESSFUL COMPLETION OF PERFORMANCE MILESTONES NEGOTIATED WITH NASA. NASA S CONTRIBUTION WILL BE A FIXED AMOUNT. 2.1 PROJECT SCHEDULE NASA AND ITS CCDEV 2 PARTNERS WILL BEGIN THE PROJECT UPON EXECUTION OF THE CCDEV 2 SAAS WHICH IS TARGETED FOR APRIL 2011.THE PARTICIPANT S CCDEV 2 MILESTONES SHOULD PLAN TO BE CONCLUDED NO LATER THAN MAY 2012. THE CCDEV 2 COMPETITION SCHEDULE MILESTONES ARE POSTED ON THE FOLLOWING CCDEV 2 WEBSITE: HTTP://PROCUREMENT.JSC.NASA.GOV/CCDEV2/.PARTICIPANTS ARE ENCOURAGED TO REFER REGULARLY TO THIS SITE FOR UPDATES TO THE SCHEDULE AND OTHER CURRENT NEWS AND INFORMATION. 2. COMMERCIAL CREW DEVELOPMENT GOALS IN ORDER TO OPEN UP THE DESIGN TRADE SPACE AND ENCOURAGE INNOVATIONS AND EFFICIENCIES IN SYSTEM DESIGN SOLUTIONS, NASA IS NOT DICTATING SPECIFIC SYSTEM CONCEPTS OR ELEMENTS.EACH PARTICIPANT MUST DETERMINE THE SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS AND CONCEPTS THAT BEST SERVES ITS TARGET MARKETS. THE GOALS OF CCDEV 2 INVESTMENTS ARE TO ADVANCE ORBITAL COMMERCIAL CTS CONCEPTS AND ENABLE SIGNIFICANT PROGRESS ON MATURING THE DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF ELEMENTS OF THE SYSTEM, SUCH AS LAUNCH VEHICLES AND SPACECRAFT, WHILE ENSURING CREW AND PASSENGER SAFETY, WITH THE OVERALL OBJECTIVE OF ACCELERATING THE AVAILABILITY OF U.S. CTS CAPABILITIES. FOR CCDEV 2, EFFORTS TO MATURE THE DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF LOWER LEVEL SUBSYSTEMS OR COMPONENTS WILL BE CONSIDERED IF SHOWN TO ACCELERATE THE AVAILABILITY OF AN IDENTIFIED ELEMENT OF A CTS CONCEPT. FOR EXAMPLE, WORK ON ITEMS SUCH AS LIFE SUPPORT SYSTEMS, LAUNCH ABORT SYSTEMS, OR RENDEZVOUS SENSORS WOULD MEET THE GOALS OF THIS ANNOUNCEMENT IF SHOWN TO ACCELERATE THE DEVELOPMENT OF A PARTICIPANT OR TEAM MEMBER S PROPOSED SPACECRAFT.ANOTHER EXAMPLE WOULD BE WORK ON ITEMS SUCH AS EMERGENCY DETECTION SYSTEMS, MAIN ENGINES,OR PROPELLANTS WOULD MEET THE GOALS OF THIS ANNOUNCEMENT IF SHOWN TO ACCELERATE THE DEVELOPMENT OF A PARTICIPANT OR TEAM MEMBER S PROPOSED LAUNCH VEHICLE.PROPOSALS TO WORK ON STAND-ALONE LOWER LEVEL SUBSYSTEMS OR COMPONENTS WOULD NOT MEET THE GOALS OF THIS ANNOUNCEMENT.FOR PARTICIPANTS WHO PROPOSE A SYSTEM CONCEPT DESIGN WITH THE INTENT OF FLYING THEIR SPACECRAFT TO THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION (ISS), DRAFT HUMAN RATING CERTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS AND ISS COMMERCIAL CREW SERVICE GOALS ARE CONTAINED IN THE ISS CREW TRANSPORTATION AND SERVICES REQUIREMENTS DOCUMENT, CCT-REQ-1130, AND THE INTERFACES ARE DEFINED IN SSP 50808 ISS TO COTS INTERFACE REQUIREMENTS DOCUMENT (IRD) DRAFT REVISION C.ADDITIONALLY, THE CREW TRANSPORTATION TECHNICAL STANDARDS, CCT-STD-1140 IS PROVIDED AS THE DRAFT NASA TECHNICAL STANDARDS REFERENCED BY CCT-REQ-1130.THE ISS IRD CALLS OUT THE JSC 65795A NASA DOCKING SYSTEM (NDS) INTERFACE DEFINITIONS DOCUMENT (IDD).
