Request for Information (RFI)
Title: Capability Demonstrations & Supply Chain Challenges for NASA Moon Base Development
1. Purpose
In support of the President-s Space Superiority Executive Order, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is committed to establishing a permanent lunar outpost by 2030. NASA-s Moon Base will serve as a hub for lunar exploration, scientific research, and technology demonstration, paving the way for future missions to Mars and beyond. NASA will accomplish this bold vision by taking a phased development approach to build-out a human-tended Moon Base.
2. Scope
NASA is seeking information from industry, academia, and partner stakeholders to inform near term capability maturation for Moon Base. This Request for Information (RFI) invites responses addressing the identification of technologies and hardware solutions that can be rapidly repurposed or quickly and efficiently developed for NASA to launch, integrate, and perform demonstration testing on the lunar surface within the next 2-4 years to aid in capability validation, accelerate the timeline for initial lunar surface operations, and inform future capability development.
Respondents should consider science, technology demonstrations and infrastructure that can be easily integrated into CLPS‑class landers and LTV‑class rovers, as well as orbiting communications‑relay or observation platforms, where such demonstrations can provide immediate Moon Base capabilities.
Submissions can reference NASA-s Architecture‑Driven Technology Gaps and Architecture‑Driven Data (Science) Gaps website {https://www.nasa.gov/moontomarsarchitecture-architecturedefinitiondocuments}, to highlight alignment with NASA‑identified capability shortfalls and architectural need statements. Respondents are encouraged to clearly identify which specific science, technology gap...
