ASTROBOTIC TECHNOLOGY INC — National Aeronautics and Space Administration SBIR Phase III: SBIR PHASE III VERTICAL SOLAR ARRAY TECHNOLOGY (VSAT) AND LUNARAY TESTING
ASTROBOTIC TECHNOLOGY INC — SBIR Phase III award from National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
Phase III transition / production-path signal
- Phase III work is typically non-SBIR set-aside follow-on. Seeing ASTROBOTIC TECHNOLOGY INC at Phase III is a strong transition indicator in this domain.
- Competitors studying dual-use scale-up should treat Phase III firms as graduation benchmarks, not just Phase I/II volume leaders.
- Obligated amount $1,097,137 is consistent with substantial Phase II-scale effort; compare to related awards from the same agency.
- Tagged technology areas: Space & Satellite, Power & Energy. Follow those hubs for open topics and peer winners in the same cluster.
Summary
NASA awarded Astrobotic Technology Inc. over $1.1 million in SBIR Phase III funding to advance Vertical Solar Array Technology (VSAT) and conduct lunar array testing. The project focuses on developing reliable solar power systems for future space missions.
