Opportunity Information: Apply for USAFA BAA 2021 CALL0002
The United States Air Force Academy (USAFA) has announced a grant opportunity focused on "Space Domain Awareness Grand Challenge – Ground-Based Spectral Signatures of Satellites." This initiative aims to enhance understanding of manmade satellites using optical signatures captured by telescopes both on the USAFA campus and through the Falcon Telescope Network.
The program emphasizes research in three key areas: 1. Calibration of USAFA telescopes for slitless spectroscopy. 2. Application of slitless spectroscopy to characterize satellites. 3. Extraction of satellite features from spectral data, using machine learning or data analysis techniques.
Researchers are encouraged to involve academy cadets in their projects, typically one or two per semester.
The proposal process is divided into two steps. Interested participants must submit white papers by April 12, 2021, detailing their research approach, including a resume of the principal investigator and preliminary cost estimates. Selected submissions will be invited to submit full proposals. Funding for the project totals $300,000 over three years, with a focus on issuing a Cooperative Agreement.
Proposals must be submitted according to specific guidelines outlined in the broader agency announcement and should include registration in the System for Award Management. Multiple awards may be considered, with the anticipated award date set for August 1, 2021.
