This RFI is NOT to be construed as a commitment by the government to enter into any agreement or other obligation or to conduct an Extreme Environments Challenge (Challenge). NASA welcomes all segments of industry, academia, and government, including associations, innovators, and enthusiasts to reply. This notice is issued in accordance with the NASA Prize Authority, 51 U.S.C. 20144. Many potential NASA planetary science missions are to destinations where scientific measurements will need to be conducted in extreme environments. As described in the attachment, NASA is considering the use of a Challenge driven prize competition approach to accelerate development and demonstration of key technologies for these missions. The purposes of this RFI are: (1) gather feedback on the competition being considered, the prize amounts and distribution structure, (2) to determine the level of interest in potentially competing in various phases of this Challenge, and (3) understand the applicability of the challenge capabilities for other terrestrial applications.
