Contracts can have multiple “contract actions”: This is how agencies spend money for a specific purpose, adjust the amount committed or change the contract in a way that doesn’t affect the amount. That last scenario is usually indicated by a $0 action. If there is a contract action for a negative amount, it generally means the contract was adjusted or canceled.

COVID-19 ADVANCE AGREEMENT MOD SPACE AND EARTH SCIENCES DATA ANALYSIS (SESDA) THE PURPOSE OF THIS CONTRACT IS TO PROVIDE A BROAD RANGE OF SERVICES TO SUPPORT PRIMARILY SCIENCES AND EXPLORATION DIRECTORATE (SED, CODE 600) EARTH AND SPACE SCIENCE RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT, DATA OPERATIONS, AS WELL AS ACTIVITIES IN INFORMATION SYSTEM TECHNOLOGIES, ENGINEERING, AND SCIENCE COMMUNICATION, EDUCATION AND PUBLIC OUTREACH, THAT ENABLE CODE 600 TO SUCCESSFULLY CARRY OUT ITS SCIENCE MISSIONS AT THE GODDARD SPACE FLIGHT CENTER (GSFC). SED SCIENCE RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES AND FUNDING ARE CLOSELY ALIGNED TO NASA'S SCIENCE PROJECTS AND PROGRAMS. SCIENCE DATA SYSTEMS IN THE SED EXIST TO ENABLE THE PRODUCTION OF SCIENCE RESULTS. SED SCIENCE DATA OPERATIONS ARE DRIVEN PRIMARILY BY SCIENCE DISCIPLINE-SPECIFIC NEEDS AND DISCIPLINE-SPECIFIC APPROACHES TO HOW DATA ARE MOST EFFECTIVELY AND EFFICIENTLY MADE AVAILABLE AND USEFUL TO DISCIPLINE RESEARCH COMMUNITIES. THE SERVICES REQUIRED UNDER THIS CONTRACT SUPPORT ALL THE SCIENCE DISCIPLINES WITHIN CODE 600, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE STUDY OF THE EARTH, THE SUN, OUR SOLAR SYSTEM AND THE UNIVERSE. RESEARCH AND INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SUPPORT SERVICES INCLUDES SCIENTIFIC DATA ANALYSIS AND VISUALIZATION, MODELING AND SIMULATION OF PHYSICAL PROCESSES, DEVELOPMENT AND TESTING OF FLIGHT PROJECT INSTRUMENT AND DATA SYSTEMS, FIELD EXPERIMENTS, DEVELOPMENT AND OPERATIONS OF LARGE-SCALE DATA MANAGEMENT, ARCHIVAL AND DELIVERY SYSTEMS, SYSTEMS ANALYSIS, AND PROGRAMMING AND INCLUDES ENGINEERING, TECHNOLOGY, RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT, NETWORK ENGINEERING, AND EDUCATION AND PUBLIC OUTREACH. THE CONTRACTOR SHALL SUPPORT BOTH ONGOING AND NEW PROJECTS AS REQUIRED IN ALL THESE AREAS. WORK DEFINED UNDER THIS CONTRACT IS PRIMARILY FUNDED BY THE SED (CODE 600) ALTHOUGH OTHER DIRECTORATES SUCH AS THE FLIGHT PROJECTS DIRECTORATE (CODE 400), THE APPLIED ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY DIRECTORATE (CODE 500), AND THE INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTORATE (CODE 700) CAN UTILIZE THIS CONTRACT WHEN APPROPRIATE. THESE DIRECTORATES HAVE PIVOTAL ROLES IN NASA'S MISSION TO PIONEER THE FUTURE IN SPACE EXPLORATION, SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY, AND AERONAUTICS RESEARCH. GSFC ALSO HAS OTHER AREAS OF STRATEGIC RESPONSIBILITY THAT SUPPORT NASAS PROGRAMS AND NEW FOCUS AREAS ARE OCCASIONALLY DEFINED BY NASA HEADQUARTERS. MOST OF THE SERVICES PROVIDED WILL BE IN DIRECT SUPPORT TO THE SCIENCE, FLIGHT PROGRAMS, INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND ENGINEERING ORGANIZATIONAL ENTITIES AT GSFC. THE TECHNICAL PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR THIS CONTRACT ARE DEFINED BELOW BY CATEGORY WITH EXPANDED DEFINITIONS.	ADNET SYSTEMS, INC.

COVID ADVANCED AGREEMENT MOD THE GOAL OF THIS RESEARCH IS TO CONDUCT A FEASIBILITY STUDY TO VALIDATE THE RELATIVE EASE AND AFFORDABILITY OF REPURPOSING ROCKET UPPER STAGES TO SERVE AS HABITATS, BEGINNING WITH A DEMONSTRATION OF CONVERTING AND ATTACHING A CENTAUR UPPER STAGE TO THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION (ISS). THIS CONTRACT IS IN SUPPORT OF THE FOLLOWING LIST OF NASA OBJECTIVES FOR THIS PHASE OF THE HABITATION SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT: 1. DEVELOP AND REFINE THE EVOLVABLE, MODULAR ARCHITECTURE, FUNCTIONAL ALLOCATION OPTIONS, STANDARDS, AND COMMON INTERFACES REQUIRED TO ENABLE INTEROPERABILITY OF THE AGGREGATE SYSTEM TO PROVIDE LONG DURATION DEEP SPACE TRANSIT HABITATION. ACHIEVE A LEVEL OF FIDELITY IN TECHNICAL AND PROGRAMMATIC FEASIBILITY CONCEPTS FOR GROUND PROTOFLIGHT VEHICLES-MODULES-UNITS/ 2. FURTHER DEFINE AND DEVELOP DEEP SPACE HABITATION CAPABILITIES THAT CAN BE FLOWN AS CO-MANIFESTED PAYLOADS ON SLS BLOCK 1B WITH AN INITIAL SLS CO-MANIFESTING CAPABILITY OF 4 TO 6 METRIC TONS STARTING IN EARLY-TO-MID 2020S, OR LATER IN THE 2020S ON A CARGO-ONLY VERSION OF SLS, OR ON ALTERNATIVE LAUNCH VEHICLES. NOTE THE HABITATION SYSTEM CONCEPT CAN BE SEPARATED INTO MULTIPLE INTEGRATED MODULES WITH DISTRIBUTED FUNCTIONS. IF THE HABITATION CONCEPT IS NOT FLOWN ON SLS, PROVIDE DETAILS OF THE LAUNCH VEHICLE ASSUMPTIONS. 3. MATURE THE DESIGN OF THE OVERALL DEEP SPACE INTEGRATED SYSTEM(S) AND, AT A MINIMUM, DEVELOP A FULL SIZE, GROUND PROTOTYPE OF THE PORTION OF YOUR DESIGN THAT PROVIDES THE MAJORITY OF THE HABITATION CAPABILITIES FOR FORM, FIT, AND PARTIAL FUNCTION INTEGRATION TESTING. 4. IDENTIFY COMMERCIAL CAPABILITY DEVELOPMENT FOR LEO THAT INTERSECTS NASA LONG DURATION DEEP SPACE HABITATION REQUIREMENTS ALONG WITH ANY POTENTIAL OPTION TO MAXIMIZE THE LEVERAGING OF COMMERCIAL LEO ADVANCEMENTS TOWARDS MEETING NASA LONG DURATION DEEP SPACE HABITATION NEEDS. 5. PROVIDE INFORMATION ON COMPANY END-TO-END DEVELOPMENT EFFORT AND ROM COSTS FOR FLIGHT DEVELOPMENT - COMPANIES TO PROVIDE A PROPOSAL, SOW, AND FULLY PRICED APPENDIX A EFFORTS AND ROM COSTS FOR SUBSEQUENT PHASES FOR ENGINEERING AND FLIGHT UNIT DEVELOPMENT. THIS CONTRACT IS FOR THE LXION TEAM TO COMPLETE BOTH THE PHASE 1 AND PHASE 2 WORK IN A RAPID, EFFICIENT, AND JUDICIOUS MANNER, FINISHING BOTH THE CORE FEASIBILITY AND THE CONCEPT/ARCHITECTURE PHASES OF THE STUDY BEFORE THE END OF CALENDAR YEAR 2017. THIS WILL ALLOW THE LXION TEAM TO QUICKLY MOVE INTO DEVELOPING HARDWARE, INCLUDING OUTFITTING AN ACTUAL CENTAUR IN EARLY 2018, AND BEING READY FOR THE FIRST FLIGHT OF THE LXION HABITAT AS EARLY AS 2020. THE FOCUS OF THE IXION INITIATIVE PROPOSAL IS TO DEVELOP AND DEMONSTRATE THE CAPABILITY TO REPURPOSE PROPELLANT TANKS INTO HABITABLE VOLUMES ON-ORBIT FOR USE IN AN OVERALL IN-SPACE ARCHITECTURE. THE CAPABILITY WILL BE DEMONSTRATED IN TWO PHASES. FIRST IS A CORE FEASIBILITY STUDY AS PHASE 1 AND THEN THE IXION TEAM WILL PLAN A COMPREHENSIVE SYSTEMS CONCEPTS AND ARCHITECTURE STUDY FOR PHASE 2 SHOULD THE FEASIBILITY STUDY MERIT SUCH FURTHER WORK. REPORTS WILL INCLUDE COST-BENEFIT ANALYSES OF REPURPOSING STRATEGIES AND TECHNIQUES THAT ARE MOST ATTRACTIVE. A CON-OPS MEDIA PRESENTATION WILL BE DEVELOPED THROUGHOUT BOTH PHASES 10 ILLUSTRATE THE STRATEGY AND WILL BE ADDED TO AND ENHANCED AS THE PROJECT PROGRESSES.
