Description
NASA’s Earth Science Division is seeking external partners to revive and complete the former GeoCarb instrument, integrate it onto a spacecraft, launch, operate the resulting Atmospheric Exploration Observatory, and share the atmospheric data with commercial benefits. The partnership will involve hardware development, space‑qualifying integration, launch coordination, in‑orbit operations, and data distribution. NASA expects partners to stay current with an online portal for updates and virtual briefings.
• Complete the unfinished GeoCarb instrument hardware.
• Integrate the instrument with a spacecraft, perform testing, launch, and operate the observatory in orbit.
• Provide atmospheric observation data and commercial data products to the selected partner(s).
