ATEA TECHNOLOGIES, LLC — National Aeronautics and Space Administration STTR Phase I: VERY LOW EARTH ORBITS (VLEO) CONTROL SURFACES
ATEA TECHNOLOGIES, LLC — STTR Phase I award from National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
Phase I STTR feasibility signal
- Phase I awards fund proof-of-concept work. For capture teams, they mark early interest from National Aeronautics and Space Administration in a technical approach.
- Watch for Phase II follow-ons from the same firm/topic family — that conversion path is where budgets and transition pressure rise.
- Obligated amount $224,979. Cross-check similar awards in the same agency and technology tags for going-rate context.
- Tagged technology areas: Space & Satellite. Follow those hubs for open topics and peer winners in the same cluster.
Summary
ATEA Technologies received nearly $225,000 from NASA for an STTR Phase I project to develop control surfaces for spacecraft in very low Earth orbits. The work aims to improve satellite stability and performance at lower altitudes where air resistance is higher.
