Opportunity Information: Apply for 80HQTR23NOA01 23FO F1

NASA is set to announce a new grant opportunity called "Technology Advancement Utilizing Suborbital and Orbital Flight Opportunities," referred to as "TechFlights." This opportunity, part of the Space Technology Mission Directorate's broader 2023 NASA Research Announcement, aims to fund the rapid testing and demonstration of space technologies in real-world environments.

The grant will support payload testing on U.S. commercial suborbital rockets, rocket-powered landers, high-altitude balloons, and orbital platforms. It emphasizes quick turnaround from award to flight testing to accelerate technology development, along with achieving significant impacts from the funded projects. This initiative is designed to not only enhance NASA missions but also stimulate the growth of the U.S. commercial spaceflight industry.

The solicitation will cover two main areas: the first focuses on developing capabilities for lunar utilization and low-Earth orbit to geosynchronous Earth orbit transitions, with key topics like cryogenic fluid management and advanced manufacturing being particularly prioritized. The second topic supports the Commercially Enabled Rapid Space Science initiative aimed at increasing research capabilities through collaboration with the commercial space sector.

NASA plans to allocate up to $1 million for successful proposals to cover flight services, payload preparation, post-flight analysis, and travel expenses. A dual-anonymous peer review process will be utilized to ensure fair evaluation of proposals from external, non-NASA investigators. Awards are anticipated to begin in February 2024, with around 6-9 suborbital awards and 1-2 orbital awards expected, contingent upon the quality of proposals received.

Proposal submissions must go through the NSPIRES system. A preliminary proposal is due by May 12, 2023, and full proposals (by invitation) are expected by September 11, 2023. Prospective applicants are encouraged to familiarize themselves with the submission requirements and deadlines. For questions, interested parties can reach out to NASA’s program executive via email.
