NASA has selected six U.S. small businesses to receive nearly $20 million in total to advance technologies to address two challenges in space exploration: orbital debris and surface dust. During their contracts, the companies will produce prototypes to be demonstrated or used in spaceflight. 'Our missions require innovative solutions to overcome the complex challenges of spaceflight," said Jenn Gustetic, director of early stage innovation and partnerships for NASA's Space Technology Mission Directorate (STMD) in Washington.
