Description

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)/George C. Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) is hereby soliciting information from potential industrial sources pertaining to the development of state-of-the-art x-ray grazing incidence optics in a conventional Wolter-I Optical system (i.e. mirrors, optical mounts) using space qualified optical materials with demonstrated precision manufacturing and alignment capability that can ultimately achieve arc-sec angular resolution in a relative space environment.

NASA MSFC is seeking capability statements from all interested parties, including all socioeconomic categories of Small Businesses and Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU)/Minority Institutions (MI), and members of the underserved communities as defined by Executive Order 13985, Advancing Racial Equity And Support For Underserved Communities Through The Federal Government, for the purposes of determining the appropriate level of competition and/or small business subcontracting goals for the development of high performing x-ray grazing incidence segmented optics and precision optical mounts in a conventional Wolter-I configuration capable of achieving arc-second angular resolution performance in a relative space environment. The Government reserves the right to consider a Small, 8(a), Women-owned (WOSB), Service-Disabled Veteran (SD-VOSB), Economically Disadvantaged Women-owned Small Business (EDWOSB) or HUBZone business set-aside based on responses received.

NASA MSFC solicits information from the industrial community pertaining to state-of-the-art x-ray grazing incident segmented optics for space applications, specifically of interest is industrial capability to design, manufacture, integrate, align, and test of segmented glass x-ray optics.

MSFC seeks this information to identify a potential supplier for x-ray mirrors (parabolic (P) & hyperbola (H) prescription summary shown in Table 1 and dimensions as shown b...
