- Description
- NASA/LaRC plans to issue a Final NASA Research Announcement (NRA) seeking proposals for the establishment of the National Institute of Aerospace at Langley Research Center. The anticipated release date of the Final NRA is on or about February 28, 2002 with an anticipated proposal due date of on or about April 30, 2002. Interested sources should reference the solicitation documents for information regarding submitting proposals and the selection process. The Institute will be established pursuant to NASA Procedures and Guidelines (NPG) 5000.1 entitled "Establishing a Science and Research Institute." The NPG can be obtained at http://nodis3.gsfc.nasa.gov/library/main_lib.html. NASA intends to award both a Cooperative Agreement and Contract to a single proposing entity. In accordance with NPG 5000.1, the lead proposing entity must be a domestic academic institution or a not-for profit organization, or a consortium of such entities. The Institute will (1) conduct leading edge aerospace research and develop revolutionary new technologies by creating innovative, collaborative, synergistic partnerships among LaRC, academia, and industry; (2) provide comprehensive graduate education in science and engineering through participating universities by using both a local campus and exploiting innovative distance-learning concepts; (3) incubate, stimulate, and commercialize new intellectual property; and (4) promote aerospace science and engineering, provide outreach, and stimulate public awareness and support in aeronautics and space research and technology development. The principal objectives of the Institute are to (1) create a strategic partner to conduct leading edge research in collaboration with LaRC; (2) leverage the intellectual capital of the academic community to fulfill the LaRC mission; and (3) leverage the assets of LaRC for the public purposes of creating new knowledge and a better-educated workforce. The scope of the research to be performed by the Institute encompasses: (1) aerospace systems, concepts, and analysis; (2) aerodynamics, aerothermodynamics, and acoustics; (3) structures and materials; (4) airborne systems; (5) atmospheric sciences and sensor system technologies; and (6) planetary capture and entry technologies.
