Sidus Space Inc (NASDAQ:SIDU) announced that it has been awarded a five-year Indefinite-Delivery/Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contract, with a $10 million ceiling, to provide services to a US-owned company in support of their commercial lunar program.
The Space and Defense-as-a-Service satellite firm said it will be supporting a lunar transportation, infrastructure and exploration services company with program management, flight software, command & data handling (C&DH), electrical and thermal support services.
"The moon provides an opportunity to build an infrastructure that enables human permanence on the moon and a transition to commercial operations past lower earth orbit and on to more distant destinations," Sidus Space CEO Carol Craig said in a statement.
Sidus Space noted that a commercial lunar platform includes everything from payload integration and operations, to launching from Earth and landing on the surface of the Moon.
Sidus Space is a Space and Defense-as-a-Service satellite company focused on mission-critical hardware manufacturing; multi-disciplinary engineering services; satellite design, production, launch planning, mission operations; and in-orbit support.
