NASA Office of Education Request for Information: American Student Moon Orbiter Project
The American Student Moon Orbiter Project is a diverse, nationwide NASA education initiative through which American university students and their faculty advisors will design, build, register, launch, operate and own a small spacecraft and its lunar science payloads. NASA’s Office of Education is seeking input from college, university and potential industry officials and decision-makers with experience in university-level, student-led flight projects focusing on spaceflight satellite and/or payload development, payload integration, spacecraft and/or payload launch, mission operations or scientific data analysis. Information of interest includes experience and opinions applicable to the feasibility of the effort, including budget and financial expectations, realism of launch expectations, and the education and scientific merit.

Responses to this RFI will assist NASA Education to determine the level of interest in participation, the perceived feasibility of the concept, the ability to provide funding, and implementation concepts or solutions. If a decision is made to proceed with the concept, information provided by the RFI will assist NASA in establishing requirements, resources, and evaluation criteria.

Responses are due Sept. 30, 2008.
